  • Driver assist information transmitter, a driver assist information receiver, and a driver assist information providing system
    Patent number: 6873904
    Abstract: A driver assist information providing system includes a driver assist information transmitter and a driver assist information receiver. In the driver assist information transmitter, driver assist information having positional information and multimedia information are generated to each element of real time information by a driver assist information generator. After coding and compacting by a coded data compactor, an event constructed by an event module constitutor is broadcasted by a transmitter as a modulated event. In the driver assist information receiver, the driver assist information is obtained through the demodulation by an event module demodulator and decompression and decoding by a driver assist information obtainer. Then, the driver assist information to be required is selected by the driver assist information obtainer using positional information obtained by a current position obtainer, and is indicated on a display device.
