Electronic Device and Control Method Thereof - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17857834 titled 'Electronic Device and Control Method Thereof

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a display module, a communicator, an input module, and a controller. The device is capable of determining the shortest path for a user's route, either indoors or outdoors, based on user input or the external environment. The determined route is then displayed on the device's display module.

  • The electronic device includes a display module, communicator, input module, and controller.
  • The device can determine the shortest path for a user's route, whether indoors or outdoors.
  • The determination of the route can be based on user input or the external environment.
  • The determined route is displayed on the device's display module.

Potential Applications

  • Navigation systems for indoor and outdoor environments.
  • Guiding users through complex buildings or campuses.
  • Providing efficient routes for transportation or logistics purposes.

Problems Solved

  • Difficulty in finding the shortest path for a given route, especially in complex indoor environments.
  • Lack of guidance for users in unfamiliar or large outdoor areas.
  • Inefficient navigation systems that do not consider user preferences or real-time conditions.

Benefits

  • Improved navigation experience for users by providing the shortest path.
  • Increased efficiency in reaching destinations, saving time and effort.
  • Customizable routes based on user preferences or real-time conditions.


Original Abstract Submitted

An embodiment electronic device includes a display module, a communicator configured to communicate with a server, an input module, and a controller configured to determine a route to be guided as a shortest path, from an indoor route or an outdoor route based on an input received at the input module from a user or based on an external environment, determine a route from a departure point to an arrival point based on the route to be guided as the shortest path, and control the display module to display the determined route.
