Abstract

A portable video device in combination with a positioning system includes a main body, a DVD system chip, a GPS receiving module, a memory card reader, a DVD device, and a display. The main body includes a GPS slot allowing the GPS receiving module to plug in. The DVD system chip is connected to a random access memory and a program storage memory. The GPS receiving module is inserted into the GPS slot and electrically connected to the DVD system chip. The GPS receiving module includes a GPS receiving antenna and a signal decoding chip. The memory card reader, the DVD device, and the display are connected to the DVD system chip. Thereby, the DVD system chip is operative to integrate and process the data transmitted from the map data DVD and the GPS signal received by the GPS receiving module into the navigation information presented on the display.

Claims
