Haluk Ziya Zorluoglu, Can Tunca, and Gürol Canbek, Methods and systems of generating route guidance in near real-time
US 11959763 B1, Publication: 16 April 2024.
In this patent, we developed a method for near real-time route guidance using mobile devices. This innovative approach leverages a dynamic applet that activates upon identifying a destination, instantly determining your location, and communicating with a server to generate a precise route. The system then seamlessly provides step-by-step navigation, ensuring efficient and timely travel from start to finish. Revolutionizing how we navigate, this technology brings cutting-edge location services directly to your fingertips.
Keywords: real-time route guidance, mobile navigation technology, dynamic applet navigation, near real-time GPS routing, location-based services, mobile device route planning, instant route calculation, server-based navigation, destination-triggered navigation, efficient travel guidance, step-by-step route assistance, real-time map generation, precise navigation technology, innovative route guidance, dynamic location services
