Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein System, daß es Reisenden (ebenso Urlaubs- wie Geschäfts- Reisenden) zu jeder Zeit erlaubt, Informationen über den Reiseweg, das Reiseziel und damit verbundene Informationen (wie z. B. Wörterbuch) zur Verfügung zu stellen.The invention relates to a system that travelers (as well as vacation as well as business Travelers) are allowed at any time, information about the travel route, the destination and to provide related information (such as a dictionary).
Das Informationssystem besteht gemäß dem Patentanspruch 1 zumindest aus einem miniaturisierten Computer, auf dessen Bildschirm die relevanten Informationen dargeboten werden. Vorzugsweise besteht das System aus folgenden Komponenten:According to claim 1, the information system consists of at least one miniaturized computer, on the screen of which the relevant information are presented. The system preferably consists of the following components:
- 1. Miniaturisierter grafikfähiger Computer im Format eines dünnen Taschenbuchs.1. Miniaturized graphic-capable computer in the format of a thin paperback.
- 2. Kleine, preisgünstige Informationsträger (z. B. Chipkarten), auf denen Reiseziel- bzw. Reiserouten-spezifische Informationen gespeichert sind.2. Small, inexpensive information carriers (e.g. chip cards) on which travel destination or route-specific information is stored.
- 3. Maschinelle Verteilerstationen für diese Informationsträger (ähnlich wie Fahrkartenautomaten, bzw. Einheiten, die in Fahrkartenautomaten integriert werden).3. Mechanical distribution stations for these information carriers (similar to Ticket machines, or units integrated in ticket machines will).
- 4. Drahtlose Verteilerstationen, die diese Informationen gebührenpflichtig über kurze Entfernungen "schnurlos" oder aber über größere Entfernungen mit Hilfe von Datenkommunikationsdiensten wie DECT und ähnliche übertragen.4. Wireless distribution stations that charge this information over short Distances "cordless" or over longer distances with the help of Data communication services such as DECT and the like are transmitted.
Die Komponente 1 (Miniaturisierter grafikfähiger Computer) enthält einen Flachbildschirm (z. B. LCD-Technik) mit einer Auflösung von z. B. 64.000 . . . 307.200 Bildpunkten, eine akustische Ausgabe für Sprache, eine elektromechanische Schnittstelle für die Informationsträger (z. B. PCMCIA-Karten oder ROM-Moduln) sowie optional eine drahtlose Datenübertragungseinrichtung, die das "Einspielen" lokal-spezifischer Informationen von einer Verteilerstation (Komponente 4) erlaubt. In einer ersten Ausführungsform geschieht dies über eine Kurzstrecken-Infrarot-Verbindung zur Verteilerstation, in einer zweiten Ausführungsform über ein öffentliches drahtloses Telefonie- oder Datenübertragungs-Netz. Im letzteren Fall ist die Komponente 1 vorzüglich ein Zusatz zu einem bestehenden oder zu erstellenden Mobiltelefon.Component 1 (miniaturized graphics-capable computer) contains one Flat screen (e.g. LCD technology) with a resolution of e.g. B. 64,000. . . 307,200 pixels, an acoustic output for speech, one Electromechanical interface for the information carrier (e.g. PCMCIA cards or ROM modules) and optionally a wireless data transmission device, the "import" of local-specific information from a distribution station (Component 4) allowed. In a first embodiment, this is done using a Short-range infrared connection to the distribution station, in a second Embodiment via a public wireless telephony or Data transmission network. In the latter case, component 1 is excellent Addition to an existing or to be created mobile phone.
Die Komponente 2 ist ein kostengünstiges, nichtflüchtiges elektronisches Speichermedium, das vom Informationsanbieter einmalig mit den anzubietenden Informationen programmiert wird. Natürlich sind als Informationsträger, von denen sich Teile z. B. in Jahresfrist oder sogar rascher ändern (z. B. Fahrpläne), auch reprogrammierbare Informationsträger denkbar (z. B. Flash-Technologie). Die Komponente verfügt über eine einfache, zuverlässige und kostengünstige elektromechanische Schnittstelle zur Komponente 1. Component 2 is an inexpensive, non-volatile electronic Storage medium that is provided once by the information provider with the ones to be offered Information is programmed. Of course, as information carriers, of which parts z. B. change in a year period or even faster (e.g. timetables), too Reprogrammable information carriers conceivable (e.g. flash technology). The Component has a simple, reliable and affordable Electromechanical interface to component 1.
Die Komponenten 3 und 4 dienen zur Verteilung der Informationen an öffentlich zugänglichen Stellen (Reisebüros, Flughäfen, Hotels, Bahnhöfen, Fremdenverkehrszentren, usw.).Components 3 and 4 are used to distribute the information to the public accessible locations (travel agencies, airports, hotels, train stations, Tourist centers, etc.).
Die Komponente 3 erlaubt Auswahl und Erwerb eines Informationsträgers ähnlich wie bei einem Fahrkartenautomaten.Component 3 allows selection and acquisition of an information medium similar to at a ticket machine.
Für Komponente 4 gibt es zwei Ausführungsformen: Die lokale drahtlose und die ortsunabhängig drahtlose. Die lokale Ausführungsform erlaubt Auswahl und Erwerb einer Information drahtlos über eine Entfernung von z. B. 1 m zwischen Verteilereinheit und Computer (=Komponente 1). Die ortsunabhängige Ausführungsform erfüllt die gleiche Aufgabe über einen allgemeinen öffentlichen oder einen spezifischen Telekommunikationsdienst (z. B. DECT), wobei praktisch beliebige Entfernungen überbrückt werden können.There are two embodiments for component 4: the local wireless and the wireless regardless of location. The local embodiment allows selection and Acquisition of information wirelessly over a distance of e.g. B. 1 m between Distribution unit and computer (= component 1). The location-independent Embodiment does the same job over a general public or a specific telecommunications service (e.g. DECT), being practical any distances can be bridged.
Gegenüber herkömmlichen, Papier-basierenden Lösungen hat dieses System den
Vorteil, daß die gewünschten Informationen
über Komponenten 2 . . . 4 rund um die Uhr zugänglich sind
in beliebig kurzfristiger Weise kostengünstig aktualisierbar sind
über typische Computerfunktionen (wie z. B. Datenbankabfrage) benutzt und
bequem ausgewertet werden können
mit multimedialen Funktionen (Text-, Bild- und Sprach-Ausgabe) ein
vollständigeres Gesamtbild vermitteln.Compared to conventional, paper-based solutions, this system has the advantage that the desired information
about components 2. . . 4 are accessible around the clock
can be updated inexpensively in any short-term manner
can be used and easily evaluated using typical computer functions (e.g. database query)
convey a more complete picture with multimedia functions (text, image and voice output).
Gegenüber herkömmlichen Taschencomputern, die z. B. als Sprachführer programmiert sind, hat dieses Konzept den Vorteil, daß es in ein Gesamtsystem eingebunden ist, das Informationsnutzer und Informationsanbieter flexibel entsprechend den Bedürfhissen des Anwenders aufeinander abstimmt.Compared to conventional pocket computers, which, for. B. programmed as phrasebook this concept has the advantage that it is integrated into an overall system, the information user and information provider flexibly according to the Coordinated with the needs of the user.
