Abstract

A remote control device containing a Global Positioning System (GPS) device emitting a geographical signal processed in this same remote control to produce a signal which then elicits the selection of a map file recorded on a Digital Video Disc (DVD) on a separate digital video disc player connected to a video display device also separate from this remote control toward display and manipulation of this and other map files and the geographic position of this remote control.

Claims

1. What I claim is to be the sole inventor of the concept of incorporating a Global Positioning System into a device which processes that geographic information signal and then uses it to remotely control a Digital Video Player to read, process, display, and manipulate map and other geographic data files already recorded on a removable Digital Video Disc.
