Abstract
This invention relates to the Design and Concept for a system that augments the functionality of a wireless data device by extending the functionality of said device via a graphical and/or textual user interface on a detached display which interacts with said device via wireless communication. The system enables the capability to collect user input on the detached display and transmit that input to the wireless device for processing. This invention also relates to methods and a system for optimizing the wireless communication transmissions for multiple applications and/or devices in order to effectively share the communication path. This invention also relates to methods and a system for rendering the graphical output from applications to a detached display which may be of a different size and resolution than the integrated display of the wireless data device. This invention also relates to methods and a system for limiting the display and functionality for various purposes including, but not limited to, safety, security and parental control. This invention also relates to the Design and Concept for a system that augments the functionality of a wireless data device by extending the functionality of said device via a graphical and/or textual user interface on a detached display which interacts with said device via a wired connection. This invention also relates to the Design and Concept for a system that enables a display device to provide navigation services driven by location data that is attained external to said display device.
