INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18370946 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for determining a physical path corresponding to a communication path between two communication devices based on their physical positions and positions set in a path connecting them.
- An information processing device acquires physical positions of two communication devices and positions set in a path connecting them.
- The device then searches for a physical path corresponding to the communication path between the two devices based on the acquired positions.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in:
- Indoor navigation systems
- Asset tracking systems
- Autonomous vehicle navigation
Problems Solved
This technology helps in:
- Efficiently determining communication paths between devices
- Improving location-based services
- Enhancing navigation accuracy
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include:
- Improved communication efficiency
- Enhanced location accuracy
- Better navigation guidance
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology could be commercially applied in:
- Logistics and supply chain management
- Smart city infrastructure
- Fleet management systems
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be GPS navigation systems that determine routes based on the physical positions of devices.
Unanswered Questions
How does the technology handle obstacles in the physical path between the communication devices?
The patent application does not specify how the technology deals with obstacles that may obstruct the communication path.
It is not clear from the abstract whether this technology can be easily integrated with current navigation systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
An information processing device acquires a first position indicating a physical position of a first communication device, a second position indicating a physical position of a second communication device, and a plurality of third positions indicating physical positions set in a path connecting the first position and the second position; and searches for a physical path corresponding to a communication path of the first communication device and the second communication device based on the first position, the second position, and the plurality of third positions.
