Interactive video display system
First Claim
1. An integrated video display system for communicating with local viewers comprising:
- means for receiving a modulated signal carrying related audio and video information;
a video and audio control operatively connected to said receiving means for receiving the modulated signal and separating the signal into a video signal and an audio signal;
a video display monitor connected to said control for receiving the video signal and displaying the video information carried by said video signal;
a radio transmitter connected to said control for receiving the audio signal and transmitting a radio frequency signal at a select frequency so that the audio information related to the video information can be received by users proximate the video display monitor; and
an interactive control operatively associated with said video and audio control for locally generating instructions to be displayed, the locally generated instructions being related to the audio and video information of the received modulated signal, said video and audio control combining the received instructions with the received video information prior to transferring the video signal to the video display monitor,the receiving means, video and audio control, video display monitor, radio transmitter and interactive control all being operatively associated together as an integral system.

Abstract
An interactive video display system is disclosed for communicating with local viewers. The system includes a receiver for receiving a modulated signal carrying related audio and video information. A video and audio control is operatively connected to the receiver for receiving the modulated signal and separating the signal into a video signal and an audio signal. A video display monitor is connected to the control for receiving the video signal and displaying the video information carried by the video signal. A radio transmitter is connected to the control for receiving the audio signal and transmitting a radio frequency signal at a select frequency so that the audio information related to the video information can be received by viewers proximate the video display system. An interactive control is operatively associated with the video and audio control for generating instructions to be displayed, the video and audio control combining the received instructions with the received video information prior to transferring the video signal to the video display monitor.
