Title:
AUTOMOTIVE STORAGE AND PLAYBACK DEVICE AND METHOD USING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003012579
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An automotive storage and playback device and method for using the same are described. The automotive storage and playback device is capable of being detachably coupled to an automobile (42). The device includes a wireless transceiver (114) to receive compressed digital content automatically from a computer system (18) via a wireless local area network based on user defined preferences input into the computer system. The wireless transceiver is communicably coupled to the wireless local area network when the wireless transceiver is a predetermined distance from a wireless local area network access point (30). The device also includes a decoder and converter to decompress and convert the digital content. The decompressed and converted digital content is sent to be played on an output device in the automobile.
