On Direction Position Oriented Design in M-CubITS Vehicle WYSIWYAS Navigation

This paper describes the proposal of direction position oriented design in M-CublTS vehicle WYSIWYAS navigation, construction of this experimental system, and experiments. What navigation systems require is essentially not position information of the user´s vehicle but the direction position itself. This means that rigid fixing of the camera installation angle becomes unnecessary. We carry out on-line experiments on a vehicle, and the results show that intuitive car navigation becomes possible in various camera angles. Furthermore, we apply this vehicle WYSIWYAS navigation scheme to bicycle navigation and carry out off-line experiments.
