Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention generally relates to a navigation device and/or method for determining a travel route from a first location to a second location, such as a portable navigation device (The so-called PND), specifically, includes the Global Positioning System (Gps) signal reception and processing functionality of the PND. More specifically, the present invention is directed to a low battery life warning in a V avionics. More specifically, other embodiments are directed to any type of processing device that is configured to execute navigation software to provide route planning functionality and preferably also to provide navigation functionality. [Prior Art] ~ The GPS (Global Positioning System) signal receiving and processing function navigation device (PND) is well known and widely used as a navigation system for in-vehicle or other transportation tools. These devices are extremely well suited for making it possible to determine the route to the destination when H (4) is unfamiliar with the route to which it is navigating to. In order to calculate the "best" force "best fit" route, the average speed of each segment along the possible route is usually used. When the distance to the destination increases, the time for determining the travel route generally increases. The user of the guide waits for navigation ^4 (4) (4) = _ fast processor can increase the speed of calculating the travel route = fast processor is more expensive and tends to increase the cost of producing navigation devices. This # device relies on electricity complaints. This is the original device (blocked as a battery) to supply the portable device PND for the device in various aspects of the device. For example, a large slave can move his pND from his home to his car 145709.doc 201122522 for use in travel. Daily commuters can also remove their PND from their car to charge the device by connecting to a computer or another charging device, due to the ease of use and the availability of charging the p ND while working with the computer. Users often do not carry power cables to charge them, which may cause the PND to become useless for PND during long trips. The PND is electrically charged in the car, thus causing such devices to be present when the current PND can have a low charge warning.

Due to the limitation of the S battery for battery warning < current device and method, there is a high probability that the PND will shut down in an environment unknown or undesirable to the user. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to an example embodiment, a method is disclosed for determining, by a processor of a navigation device, at least one of a target destination and a planned travel route; using a processor of the navigation device to determine Connected to one of the power supply devices of the navigation device; the processor using the navigation device determines whether a detected power supply is sufficient for the navigation device to the target destination and throughout the planned travel route At least one of the power supplies; and providing a warning when the amount of charge is insufficient to adequately power the navigation device to at least one of the target destination and the planned travel route. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a navigation device having a battery power warning transmits "Wisdom 145709.doc 201122522 Warning" when there is a high possibility that the battery may be prematurely discharged. The navigation device may include: - an external residual, an external dual, a power supply, which is in the external, - a memory resource, a direct use ^ ^ A, a storage - a destination destination, and a different route At least - go to - ik t * ^ λ φ - β, the processor, which is used to determine whether a power supply is only sufficient for the power supply and the book is sufficient for the navigation device to be targeted to the target destination: Calculating at least one of the travel routes; and - outputting: for failing to determine that the detected power supply is sufficient to at least one of the target destination and the calculated travel route Provide a warning when power is supplied. The advantages of the embodiments are set forth below, and other details and features of the parent are defined in the accompanying dependents and elsewhere in the following embodiments. [Embodiment] Various aspects of the teachings of the present invention, as well as configurations of the teachings of the present invention, will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The various example embodiments are described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which FIG. Accordingly, while example embodiments are susceptible to various modifications and alternatives, the embodiments are illustrated in the drawings and are described in detail herein. It should be understood, however, that the invention is not intended to be Throughout the drawings, the same numbers refer to the same elements. It will be understood that, although the terms first, second, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements', such elements are not limited by the terms. These terms are only used in the 145709.doc 201122522 for the difference between - and other components. For example, a first element could be termed a second element, and similarly, a second element could be termed a first element, without departing from the scope of the example embodiments. As used herein, the term and/or "includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be understood that when an element is referred to as "connected" or "faced" to another element, it can be directly connected or spliced to another element or the intervening element can be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as a "direct connection" or a "direct connection" to another element, there is no intervening element. Other words used to describe the relationship between the components should be interpreted in a similar manner (for example, "between" and "directly between", "adjacent" and "directly adjacent", etc.) . The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and the embodiments As used herein, the singular and " It is to be understood that the term "comprises" and / or "comprises", when used in the context, is intended to mean the presence of the stated features, integers, steps, operational elements and/or components, but does not exclude one or more other The presence or addition of features, integers, steps, operations, components, components, and/or groups thereof. For ease of description, space-relative terms (eg, "below ._.", "below", "lower", "above", "upper", and the like) may be used herein to describe the figures. The relationship between one element or one feature and another element or feature is illustrated. It should be understood that such spatially related terms 145709.doc 201122522 encompasses different orientations other than the orientation depicted by the device t in the device. For example, if the device in the figure is flipped on the right, then the other components or features "under the formula "Dings > - 1" or below" will then be directed to other components or special Γ + fly Will be above." So, for example, the term "under" can be used to cover both "tens of thousands" and "under". The device can be oriented in other ways (rotated 9 degrees or viewed or referenced in other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein should be interpreted accordingly. It should also be noted that in some alternative implementations, the described functions/acts can be performed in the order described. For example, two figures shown in succession may be executed substantially concurrently or may be performed in the reverse order, depending on the functionality/acts involved. Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning meaning meaning It should be further understood that terms (e.g., those terms defined in commonly used dictionaries) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the relevant technical context, and should not be interpreted in the sense of idealization or over-formalization, Unless explicitly defined as such. The example embodiments and portions of the corresponding embodiments are presented in terms of software or algorithms and symbolic representations of the operation of the data bits in the computer memory. These descriptions and representations are the ones that are generally used by those skilled in the art to effectively convey the substance of their work to the description and representation of those skilled in the art. The term algorithm as used herein (and as it is commonly used) is contemplated as a self-consistent sequence of steps leading to the desired result. These steps are the steps of the entity 145709.doc 201122522 to manipulate the entity quantities. Usually (though not necessarily), such quantities take the form of optical, electrical or magnetic signals capable of being stored, transferred, combined, compared and otherwise manipulated. It is sometimes convenient to refer to such signals as bits, values, elements, symbols, characters, terms, numbers, or the like, primarily for common purposes. In the following description, illustrative embodiments will be described with reference to the acts and the symbolic representations (e.g., in the form of a flowchart), which can be implemented to perform particular tasks or to implement particular abstract data types. Program modules or function handlers (including routines, programs, objects, components, data structures), and can be implemented at existing network components or control nodes (eg, databases) using existing hardware. Such existing hardware may include one or more central processing units (Cpus), digital signal processors (DSps), special application integrated circuits, & Programmable Array (FpGA) computers or the like. , ...: and should have lived, and these and similar terms are all associated with the appropriate entity and are merely convenient labels for such quantities. Unless there is a specific sound: Department: such as: Description: It is obvious in the whole description, such as "," or "decision" or "display", such as the Thunderbolt system or similar electronic leaf dream system. ° The action and processing procedure of the ten different device, the computer Li Tong or similar electronic bucket 瞀 m, imm ^ ^. The ten device knowledge is expressed as the register of the computer system and the physical (electronic) quantity in the body, and transforms it into _ ° f ^ ^ ^ , which is similar to the computer m hidden or temporary storage Or other information on the amount of entities in such other categories. Transmission or display device also noted that the software embodiment of the example embodiment is typically encoded on a computer readable medium of the form 145709.doc 201122522 or embodied on a type of transmission medium on which the computer readable medium can be magnetic ( For example, 'soft disk or hard drive' or optical (example # 'compact disk read-only memory or "CD R0M")' and can be read-only or random access. Similarly, the transmission medium can be a twisted pair, a coaxial cable, an optical fiber, or some other suitable transmission medium known in the art. The examples are not limited by such aspects of any given implementation. Example embodiments will now be described with particular reference to a portable navigation device (PND). It should be understood that the teachings of the present invention are not limited to PND' and are generally applicable to any type of processing device configured to execute navigation software to provide route planning and navigation functionality. Thus, it can be seen that in the context of the present application, the navigation device is intended to include, but is not limited to, any type of route planning and/or navigation device, regardless of whether the device is embodied as a PND, navigation built into the vehicle. The device is actually embodied as a computing resource (such as a desktop or portable personal computer (PC), mobile phone or portable digital assistant (PDA) that performs route planning and navigation software). It will also be apparent from the following that the teachings of the present invention are effective even in the case where the user does not seek guidance on how to navigate from one point to another and only wishes to have a view of a given position. In such cases, the "destination" location selected by the user does not have to have the corresponding departure location from which the user wishes to navigate, and therefore, the "destination" location or the actual destination The reference to the view should not be interpreted as meaning that the route generation is necessary, and the travel to the "destination" must occur or the actual presence of the destination needs to specify the corresponding departure position. With the above conditions in mind, Figure 1 illustrates an example view of the global system I45709.doc •10·201122522: Bit System (GPS) that can be used by navigation devices. These systems are known and used for each purpose. GPS is a satellite-based radio navigation system. Eight can determine the continuous position, velocity, time and (in some cases) direction information for the number of wires. Previously referred to as the 8th (4), it was incorporated into a number of satellites with extremely precise orbital tracks around the ground axis (4). Based on these precise orbits, GPS satellites can relay their position to any number of receiving units. Tian Jing is specially equipped to implement the fertilizer system when the device that receives the GPS data starts scanning the radio frequency for the GPS satellite signal. After receiving the radio signal from the _Gps satellite, the device determines the exact location of the satellite via a plurality of different conventional methods. In most cases, the device will continue to scan the k number until it has acquired at least three different satellite signals (Zhuangsi can use other triangulation techniques to determine position by only two signals' although this is very example). After performing the geometric triangulation, the receiver uses its three known positions to determine its own two-dimensional position relative to the satellite. This determination can be made in a known manner. In addition, acquiring the fourth satellite signal will allow the receiving device to calculate its three-dimensional position in a known manner by the same geometric calculation. The position and velocity data can be continuously updated in real time by an unlimited number of users. As shown in FIG. 1, the GPS system is generally indicated by reference numeral 100. A plurality of satellites 120 are in orbit around the earth 124. The orbit of each satellite 120 is not necessarily synchronized with the orbits of other satellites 120 and is in fact likely to be different. The GPS receiver 140 is shown receiving a spread spectrum GPS satellite signal 160 from various satellites 120. The spread spectrum signal 160, which is continuously transmitted from each satellite 120, utilizes a highly accurate frequency standard achieved by its accurate atomic clock by pole 145709.doc -11 - 201122522.

It should be understood that the antennas indicated by reference numeral 250 are schematically combined for illustrative purposes. Receiver, but the antenna and receiver can be 'separately positioned components, and the antenna can be, for example, a GPS chip antenna or a helical antenna. Furthermore, the electronic components shown in Figure 7 can be used, for example, by housing 2〇5 Internal power supply 285 and / or The power supply of the external power source 295 outside the casing 2G5 is powered. In the example implementation, (4) the power source 285 can be a battery and the external power source can be a power source for the vehicle having the navigation device. The battery charging device μ8 can be connected to the outside. The navigation device 200 is configured to provide power to the navigation device 2 and/or to charge the navigation device. In an example embodiment, the battery charging device 28 8 may be a cable that interfaces with the navigation device 2 and the power source of the vehicle. As will be understood by those skilled in the art, it is understood that the different configurations of the components shown in Figure 7 are within the scope of the present application. For example, the components of Figure 7 can be wired and/or wireless. The connection and the like are connected to each other. Therefore, the scope of the navigation device 200 of the present application includes a portable or handheld navigation device 200. In addition, the portable or handheld navigation device 200 of Figure 7 can be connected to or in a known manner. & Balance to "such as bicycles, bicycles, and cars." This navigation device 200 can then be removed from the docking position for portable or handheld navigation purposes. In an example embodiment, the navigation device 2A may include: a housing 2〇5.

It should also be understood that (4) visually and/or audibly provide warnings and/or reminders on transport aids and walking or "walking" navigation. In an example embodiment, visual warnings and/or visual reminders may be displayed on the navigation device 240. Sounder warnings and/or reminders are available on Ο 265. - by the navigation device 2. . A method of providing a warning of one of the low power levels in the navigation device 200 can include: using the navigation device 2 - the processor 21 〇 determines at least one of a destination and a planned route (4) navigating (4) connecting the processor 2 i 0 to one of the navigation device 2 (10) and adding a charge amount; the processor (10) using the navigation device determines whether a detected power supply is sufficient for the navigation device 2 供电 to the target 〇 destination and at least one of the planned travel routes; and when the amount of charge is insufficient to adequately navigate the navigation device to the target destination and the household: during the planned travel route Provide at least one warning when power is supplied. In the example embodiment shown in Fig. 9, at step S2, the determination of the current state of the h navigation device 200 is performed. For example, the processor 21 of the navigation device can initially determine if the navigation device is on. This two determinations include whether the navigation device 200 is determined from an internal power source (such as an internal battery) s power supply (such as a vehicle battery). For example, the power source 285 or the external power source 295 can send a signal 145709.doc -29-201122522 to the processor 21, enabling the determination as to whether the internal power source is being used or the external power source is being used. However, regardless of whether or not this determination is made, the processing steps of Figure 9 continue as a power-discharge determination step and may be accomplished regardless of whether the navigation device is operated from internal power source 285 or external power source 295 (such as vehicle battery power). After that, at step 84, it is determined, for example, by the processor whether the travel route/destination has been keyed to the navigation device 2 (10) and has been calculated. If the route and/or destination has not been entered, the voice may be entered, for example, by one or more of the methods described above with respect to Figures 5a through 5i (for example) or by voice via input device 22G. The key person travels the route and/or destination. The route of travel is typically determined in a known manner based on, for example, the GPS signal received by the user with respect to the input destination location of the desired destination and the GPS receiver 25 of the navigation device 200 that indicates the current location of the navigation device. Once the destination has been, for example, audibly via the input device. Or the integrated input and display device 29() is input to the navigation device_, and the processor 21 of the navigation device 200 can then input the destination based on the map information stored in the body 230 of the navigation device (4). The route of travel and the location of the navigation device is determined and/or calculated in a known manner. Once the travel route has been calculated in step S4, the processing proceeds to step S6' where the memory of the navigation device 200 (such as the memory 230) is checked by, for example, the processor 21 to determine the step "type Whether the destination is a known destination or a route of previous travel. After the completion of step S6, the process continues to the step where the amount of time of the travel route is calculated based on the arrival destination or travel and the sharpening device 145709.doc • 30 - 201122522 200 and / or its function of at least the estimated power demand to estimate the amount of power required to supply the navigation device in the (four) travel.

For example, the processor 210 can compare the current battery charge amount detected by the Thunder Palladium County β + subfield electric power sensor 410 and the corresponding estimated battery life to determine whether the current battery charge is; i assumes that the navigation device 2 (10) is powered for a period of time related to the estimated time of arrival at the destination entered into the navigation device via the input device 220. The process proceeds to step S12, wherein the estimated required power supply from the step-adjusted need to support the navigation device (10) during the calculated travel can be compared to the current power supply of the power source at step SU). If there is a determination that there is a charge power available for the travel towel to the aircraft 200, the process returns to step S8, so = based on the remaining time and/or the distance remaining in the trip and the navigation device 200 The power usage is used to continue to monitor and estimate the state of the power source, thereby updating the estimated power supply required to power the navigation device for the duration of the trip. If it is determined at step S12 that there is an insufficient amount of power available for the navigation device 2, the processing proceeds to step S14, and thus will be performed by (for example, 145709.doc • 31-201122522) processor 21 A warning is initiated to warn of the insufficient amount of power present in the planned travel as a navigation device. In an example embodiment, the alert may include the remaining estimated amount of time until the navigation device will no longer have sufficient power to operate. The engine can be provided audibly and/or visually using an output 26, such as speaker 265 and/or display device 24(): for example, examples of visual warnings and/or reminders are shown in the figures and figures Figures 1a and 10b provide example warnings and/or reminders indicating that the planned trip exceeds current battery power and/or do not forget to carry the battery charger or plug the navigation device's plug into an external power source. While examples of visual warnings and reminders are shown in Figures 10a and 1b, those skilled in the art will recognize that additional warnings and/or reminders may be displayed or audibly provided. The voice alert may include, but is not limited to, a voice message describing the displayed message, alarm signal, spectral sound, or the like, which may present insufficient battery life to the user of the alert navigation device and/or the navigation device should be via the charging device Connect to an external power source. After the completion of step S14, the processing routine may continue to step (4), so the processing benefit 21G may output a signal to cause the navigation device to be fined into the power saving mode. The navigation device 200 can be placed in a power saving mode in a number of different ways, which saves power usage in the navigation device. In an example embodiment, processor 210 may turn off functions that are not necessary to navigate to the desired destination and/or travel the calculated travel route. For example, placing the navigation device 2〇0 in the power save mode may include turning off or otherwise stopping the navigation device from being in a particular "non-essential" function, including (but not limited to) MP3 capabilities, telephony capabilities , Volume Control, Firefly 145709.doc • 32· 201122522 Curtain Brightness Control, Audio Output, Relative Tuning Input and Display Device 290 Backlight Similar | Integrated Device 200 • The relative dimming can include turning off the navigation device. In addition, the display device 290 is controlled by, for example, a processor that operates from the internal power source 2; 5 (:: light: saves power. The power supply can be '(9). After the completion of step S16, the process will return to step (10) based on the arrival of the desired item (four) μ, the remaining time of the 及 and/or the so-called power measurement used in the remaining leaf state of the travel. To continue to estimate the status of the source, to update the estimated required power supply for the navigation device to provide the duration of the travel. If you push the Six Stars (will continue to be right, there should be sufficient power to allow the navigation device to The decision to operate in the remaining duration of the trip may then remove the warning and/or may exit the power save mode. In an example embodiment of the present application, the user of the navigation device 200 may initially select a display (eg, , in the integrated input of the navigation fan ◎ and the page device 290) ' or otherwise select or set a power saving mode or battery saving preference, as shown in Figure Ua and Figure m. The selection/settable preference may be such that the screen is never turned off. Alternatively - such selection/settable preferences may be to close the screen until the next navigation command approaches (eg, via the use of distance thresholds and/or time thresholds). Or alternatively, the screen is always closed until the following: the determination will provide at least one of a visual and an audible warning; at a distance less than a second distance threshold and less than a second time threshold In at least one of the determinations, a navigation button is determined to be implemented by the navigation device 2; and it is determined that one of the navigation devices transmits 145709.doc -33- 201122522 into the message signal and an incoming Ragus goes to the missing + ^ Receiving at least one of the eight percent treatments.

As previously stated with respect to Figure 9, in step S18, the navigation device can be placed in a power save mode. After that, the navigation device 2 can be taken out of the power saving mode after other conditions have occurred. For example, if process 210 determines that an instruction is set to be output to integrated j input and display device 290 or speaker 265 of navigation device 2 (8), wherein the determination of the command requires navigation to the desired destination and/or along the calculated travel route, Then, the - or more of the functions controlled by the power saving mode can be temporarily suspended. The command can be, for example, an upcoming turn, a lane change, a route change, a destination ‘°° and a waypoint, or the like. If the command is set to output (as determined by processor 210), then navigation device 200 is disengaged from the power save mode by, for example, turning the backlight on and/or, for example, removing the relatively dim state of the backlight. As shown in Ua and FIG. 11b, the user may be prompted to set a preference for setting the navigation device 200 in the power saving mode as appropriate. This navigational action _ is operable so as not to provide such preferences to the user, and, for example, only after any of the conditions stated in steps S12 to S18 of the figure is satisfied. In an example embodiment, the system can automatically throttle = battery power. For example, if the battery power is low, only important instructions can be given (e.g., 'Y kilometers along city x). Thus, several people may be skipped (and the user should pay more attention to the available road traffic signs placed by the government in the environment). However, if the user has the preference shown in Figure 11a and/or the map, the user can selectively save the available power, 145709.doc -35- 201122522 with μ to retain the specific special country required by the user. For example, the user can select the "Mu, ^ 荣 curtain" preference shown in FIG. 11a, and then the process of step S16 of FIG. 9 includes closing the display screen. Similarly, if you select the "Always turn off the screen" preference, then the singer, "Song" may be in the mobile map mode during use (that is, after the 笪 „ 在 已 已 — — — — — — — — — — — — — 始终 始终 始终 始终 始终 始终 始终 始终 始终 始终Therefore, 'as shown in Figure 11a and lib + _ , ', , can display a plurality of selected power saving mode options to the user, in the middle, after the decision of the eight in the navigation, the display in the navigation package m Mode, and can be packaged (4)? The mode is not limited to the different options of FIG. 11a and including power saving, including, for example, turning off the backlight, adjusting the backlight, etc. The σ σ-type input and display device 290 is in the embodiment, The entry of the power saving mode in step S18 can be used to save the battery power. For example, the following can be performed under the specific distance or the specific time (for example, 5 miles or 5 minutes): The user dims the screen (ie, relatively dims or turns off the backlight of the integrated input and display device 290) or turns off the specific energy. Therefore, the user can choose whether to enter the power saving mode. ^力^=力" Money can only receive the money, and (iv) using the ^ a ^ the following means not occur, the power saving mode into Lu, to the "before and after the determination is performed may be selected by the receiving processor 2 heteroatoms.

The reminder can be presented via the speaker 265 in an audible format and/or via the display device 24(R) in a visual format. For example, after determining at step S2 that the navigation device 200 is turned on, the navigation device 2 is connected to the external power supply and/or the cable is ensured to be used to connect the navigation device 200 to an external power source. The reminder can be provided via the output device 26 of the navigation device. Similarly, at step S4, after entering the destination and/or the route of travel, a reminder to connect the navigation device 2 to the external power source and/or to ensure that the cable is available to connect the navigation device 20 to the external power source may be Provided via an output device of the navigation device. If the destination entered at step 84 is not a known destination or a previously traveled route, it may also be issued to connect the navigation device 200 to an external power source and/or ensure that the charging cable is available to connect the navigation device 200 to the outside. Reminder of the power supply. In an embodiment, the reminder as discussed above may also be provided upon detecting a redirection from the calculated travel route and providing a warning at step S14.
