Zusammenfassung:	Methods and apparatus for generating, for a GPS system-directed route, a visual cue signal to activate a visual indicator at a location in a vehicle passenger compartment corresponding to a direction of an upcoming event in the route and generating an audio signal to activate a sound source at a location in the vehicle passenger compartment corresponding to the direction of the upcoming event for providing spatial information to a user. In one embodiment, a validation signal can be generated to activate a confirmation indicator upon receiving information that the user has navigated the event in accordance with the route.
