The bus stops around Japan have the typical bus schedule posted but with a QR code (below) printed in an easily accessible area.
You snap a photo of the code with your camera phone and it takes you to a web page with details of the bus route. This one resolved to the following web address:
http://jik.nnr.co.jp/cgi-bin/Tschedule/bn?cd=51005001
This includes the navigation code for the bus. If you follow the link you will need to change the encoding of the page to Japanese.
If you translate the page you will find information such as:
[12] office line Hinohara Schedule: from 17:18 (it was quarter after five when I checked)
Via: Tenzin Monzen Taisyou Akasaka Fukuoka gate Ropponmatsu
Currently: Before the first train 1F Hakata Bus
Very cool. It tells you where it is coming from and where it is now.
