摘要： To provide a navigation system for a vehicle in which guidance information necessary for the driver can be provided while using a small display space. A guidance pattern indicating the direction toward a WP is formed of an arrow pattern including a center point segment with a rhombic segment as a tip. When the vehicle approaches a crossing and the turning direction at the crossing is to the right, the display pattern is changed over to an elongate rhombic segment extending rightwards from the center point segment, thereby indicating that the turning direction is to the right. Alternatively, the rhombic segment indicating the turning direction is displayed in addition to the guidance pattern for the direction toward the WP, whereby the direction toward the WP and the turning direction are displayed in combination so that they can be differentiated from each other.

摘要： A vehicle navigation system that uses a portable information terminal. The navigation system displays route guidance information by receiving GPS satellite radio waves, and includes a navigation unit that generates route guidance information, a meter panel of a meter unit, which displays only part of the route guidance information, and a display panel of the navigation unit, which displays every selected item of the route guidance information. The meter panel of the meter unit is disposed within the visual field of the driver when in driving the vehicle. On the other hand, the display panel of the navigation unit is disposed outside of the visual field of the driver when driving the vehicle. The resulting configuration provides a vehicle navigation system that provides the driver with the minimum necessary information when driving, and provides additional detailed information when needed, combined in a system that affords excellent operability.
