==Systems and Methods for Detecting a Vehicle Type in Order to Adapt Directions and Navigation Instructions - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17792553 titled 'Systems and Methods for Detecting a Vehicle Type in Order to Adapt Directions and Navigation Instructions

==Simplified Explanation==

The present disclosure describes a system for detecting a vehicle type to customize navigation instructions based on the identified vehicle type.

* The system uses one or more vehicle type identification signals to determine the type of vehicle.
* Navigation information is then customized based on the identified vehicle type.
* The system automatically adapts directions and navigation instructions to mitigate noise in the signal.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in various industries such as transportation, logistics, and automotive to improve navigation systems for different types of vehicles.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the problem of generic navigation instructions that may not be suitable for all types of vehicles, leading to inefficiencies and potential safety issues.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include improved accuracy in navigation instructions, enhanced user experience, and optimized routes for specific vehicle types.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Potential commercial applications of this technology include integrating it into existing navigation systems, developing specialized navigation apps for different vehicle types, and offering customized navigation solutions for commercial fleets.

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art could be the use of vehicle detection systems in autonomous vehicles to adapt driving behavior based on the type of vehicle detected on the road.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

=== How does the system differentiate between different vehicle types based on the identification signals? ===
The system likely uses a database or algorithm to match the received signals with known patterns associated with specific vehicle types.

=== What measures are in place to ensure the accuracy of the identified vehicle type? ===
The system may incorporate validation checks or multiple signal sources to verify the detected vehicle type before customizing navigation instructions.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

The present disclosure provides computer-implemented methods, systems, and devices for detecting a vehicle type in order to adapt directions and navigation instructions mitigating noise in a signal. A computing device initiates, in response to user input, a navigation application. The computing device further detects one or more vehicle type identification signals associated with a vehicle. The computing device further automatically determines, using the one or more signals, a vehicle type associated with the vehicle. The computing device further receives from the navigation application, navigation information, wherein the navigation information is customized based on the determined vehicle type.
