Utility
Navigation System with Operation Obstacle Alert Mechanism and Method of Operation Thereof
29 Apr 20
A navigation system includes: a control unit configured to: identify a route obstacle in a travel environment of a user vehicle during operation of the user vehicle in an autonomous operation mode; generate an obstacle handling assessment of whether the user vehicle is capable of navigation beyond the route obstacle in the autonomous operation mode; generate an obstacle orientation alert based on the obstacle handling assessment and an engagement state of a system user of the user vehicle; a user interface, coupled to the control unit, configured to present the obstacle orientation alert.

Utility
Navigation System with Vehicle Position Mechanism and Method of Operation Thereof
29 Apr 20
A navigation system includes: a communication unit configured to receive vehicle environment information of a user vehicle, the vehicle environment information including proximate vehicle information representing proximately located vehicles relative to the user vehicle; and a control unit, coupled to the communication unit, configured to: determine lane reference vehicles from the proximately located vehicles based on a vehicle type of the proximately located vehicles; monitor the relative location of the lane reference vehicles; generate a road lane model including a lane delineation estimation based on the relative location of the lane reference vehicles; and calculate a lane position of the user vehicle according to the lane delineation estimation based on a lateral position shift of the user vehicle.

Utility
Navigation System with Vehicle Operation Mechanism and Method of Operation Thereof
11 Dec 19
A method of operation of a navigation system includes determining a vehicle type of a surrounding vehicle based on comparing a capture data to a trained data; determining a vehicle attribute of the surrounding vehicle based on comparing the capture data to the trained data; determining a vehicle position relative to a current location based on a vehicle distance meeting or exceeding a distance threshold; and controlling a vehicle operation with a control unit based on the vehicle type, the vehicle attribute, the vehicle position, or a combination thereof for adjusting the vehicle distance between a user's vehicle and a surrounding vehicle.

Utility
Navigation System with Sonic Analysis Mechanism and Method of Operation Thereof
20 Nov 19
A navigation system includes: a communication unit configured to receive a vehicle external environment information of a user vehicle; and a control unit, coupled to the communication unit, configured to: identify a sonic event from the vehicle external environment information; calculate an event position information of the sonic event relative to the user vehicle; and generate a vehicle operation instruction based on the sonic event and the event position information for operating the user vehicle.
