UPDATING A MAP FOR USE IN LOCALISING A MOBILE DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18273361 titled 'UPDATING A MAP FOR USE IN LOCALISING A MOBILE DEVICE

Simplified Explanation:

The system described in the patent application involves updating a map using a server and a mobile device. The mobile device decides whether to use the server for map processing based on network conditions, instructing the server accordingly. The server performs map processing when instructed, transmitting the results back to the mobile device.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • System for updating a map using a server and a mobile device
  • Mobile device determines server usage based on network conditions
  • Server performs map processing when instructed by the mobile device
  • Results of map processing transmitted back to the mobile device

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in various mapping applications, navigation systems, and location-based services.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for efficient map updating and processing based on network conditions.

Benefits:

  • Improved map updating process
  • Efficient use of server resources
  • Enhanced user experience with updated maps

Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include GPS navigation systems, location-based advertising, and real-time traffic updates.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the mobile device determine when to use the server for map processing? 2. What are the advantages of having the server perform map processing instead of the mobile device?


Original Abstract Submitted

It is provided a system for updating a map. The system includes: a server and a mobile device. The mobile device is configured to: obtain a metric set; determine that processing by the server is to be used for at least some map processing when the metric set indicates a network condition that is sufficiently good; instructing the server to perform at least some map processing, when processing by the server is determined to be used; perform all map processing within the mobile device, when processing by the server is determined not to be used; and update a local map in the mobile device based on a result from the map processing. The server is configured to: when instructed by the mobile device performing at least some map processing; and transmit at least part of the result of the map processing in the server, to the mobile device.
