Key Characteristics & Benefits
Navigational aids based on today's cartographic paradigm are essentially mere variations on maps used for the last several millennia. Both cumbersome to read and limited in their content these maps do not provide for the additional information that is both available to and desired by consumers.
This patent portfolio addresses the limitations of mapping and navigation products in the market and discloses a novel, columnar layout for navigational aids and maps.
- The disclosed layout greatly improves usability of navigational aids and maps, and increases the available space for conveying additional information.
- Further, new capabilities such as advertising, personal communications, and entertainment can be integrated into the navigational aids.
- The disclosed navigational tool is simpler, less expensive to manufacture, and reduces user response time, eyestrain and fatigue.
- The disclosed navigational tool can be applied to navigational aids that include pre-printed maps, on-demand computer maps, compasses, and global positioning systems (GPS).
