摘要

The service has a navigation server (40) coupled to a speech recognition system (402) which accepts information on desired route from the driver using a mobile telephone link. A GPS receiver on the vehicle returns its location to the server to allow delivery of real-time navigation information to the driver, incorporating adaptations to the route to take account of traffic conditions or delays.
