Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090287401 | System and method for realtime community information exchange - System and method for traffic mapping service are disclosed for allowing plurality of users having each a navigation device to transmit their locations to a server and optionally to signal to the server their requested destination. The system and method are further capable of calculating traffic parameters such as current traffic speed at a given road based on the momentary locations of the users. The system and method of the invention may also calculate and advise the users of preferred roads to take in order to arrive at the requested location with minimum delay. | 11-19-2009 |
20100052946 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PARKING TIME ESTIMATIONS - The invention provides a system for parking time estimations, the system comprising at least one device able to sense at least momentary location and respective time; and an application server to receive from a plurality of the devices time series of location points and to calculate, based on the received time series of location points, duration of searches for parking spots. The invention provides a method for parking time estimations, the method comprising detecting beginning of searching for a parking spot by a user of a device able to sense at least momentary location and respective time; detecting time of parking; and calculating at least estimated duration of searching for a parking spot. | 03-04-2010 |
20100057336 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ROAD MAP CREATION - The present invention provides system and method for creation of a road map, the system comprising a plurality of navigation devices; and an application server to receive from the plurality of navigation devices time series of location points, and to create a road map based on the time series of location points. The method comprising receiving location points from plurality of navigation devices, along with respective time stamps indicating the time of recordation of each of the location points; identifying at least one route according to the location points and respective time stamps; and creating a road map based on the at least one route. | 03-04-2010 |
20100231383 | Condition-based activation, shut-down and management of applications of mobile devices - Device, system, and method of condition-based activation, shut-down and management of applications of mobile devices. For example, a method includes: based on one or more collected information items, determining whether or not a condition related to a mobile device is true; and based on the determination, controlling a monitored application of the mobile device by performing at least one of: activating the monitored application; shutting down the monitored application; activating a feature of the monitored application; deactivating a feature of the monitored application; and switching the monitored application from a first mode of operation to a second, different, mode of operation. | 09-16-2010 |
20100280884 | Automated carpool matching - Automated carpool matching. For example, a method includes: collecting data from a first mobile communication device of a first user and from a second mobile communication device of a second user; determining a first travel pattern associated with the first user and a second travel pattern associated with the second user; determining a match between the first and second travel patterns; and generating a carpool proposal directed at the first and second users. | 11-04-2010 |
20110098915 | Device, system, and method of dynamic route guidance - Device, system, and method of dynamic route guidance. For example, a method includes: calculating an optimal route from a first location, in which a navigation device is located, to a destination point entered by a user of said navigation device; receiving from the navigation device a travel update, indicating that the navigation device is located in a second location, wherein the second location is on said optimal route; and based on real-time traffic information and real-time road information, determining that an alternate route, from the second location to the destination point, is now an optimal route to the destination point. | 04-28-2011 |
20120284755 | DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD OF TELEVISION BROADCASTING OF LIVE FEED FROM MOBILE DEVICES - Embodiments of the present invention are directed toward a device, system and method of television broadcasting of live feed from mobile devices. A client application residing on a mobile device allows a user of the mobile device to provide real-time reporting of an event to a central location which is configured to broadcast such live feed. A broadcaster is able to invite a user to provide the live feed. In addition or alternatively, a user is able to propose to the broadcaster that the user, who is located in proximity of a news-worthy event, is willing to commence a live feed. The broadcaster is able to accept or reject the proposal, and modify or negotiate the terms of the transfer of the live feed. The live feed is typically incorporated substantially in real time within a live broadcast. | 11-08-2012 |
