ABSTRACT:
A land vehicle navigation apparatus (10) has a vehicle navigation computer (11) which determines a navigation route and provides vehicle maneuver visual displays on a CRT display (13). The displays are preferably provided in the form of graphic arrow representations (26, 28) which are illustrated in perspective form with a tail of the arrow (26B, 28B) shown in the foreground and towards to the bottom of a display screen (20) and the head of the arrow (26A, 28A) shown in the background. A visual display of an effective bar graph, indicating the additional distance to be traveled prior to execution of the visually displayed vehicle maneuver, is visually provided and superimposed on the visually displayed vehicle maneuver graphic arrow. The bar graph comprises a series of stack horizontal bars (27, 29) superimposed on the arrow (26, 28) which is preferably shown in three dimensional form. This type of visual display more readily communicates to the vehicle operator the type of vehicle maneuver to be implemented and the time at which it is to be implemented, while utilizing a minimum amount of display space and requiring minimal distraction of the vehicle driver from his view of the road.
