Definitions
- the present invention relates to a remote control, in particular for the operation of comfort functions of a motor vehicle.
- remote controls for a variety of func NEN. Examples include remote controls for the operation of audio and / or video equipment, remote controls for operating the building services and especially remote controls for operating comfort functions of motor vehicles ge called.
- the known remote controls send the control commands by radio, infrared and / or ultrasound.
- the invention has the object of further developing the known remote controls so that their functional area is expanded.
- the remote control according to the invention builds on the generic state of the art in that it has a user-manageable multimedia data storage.
- the multimedia data storage can be in particular be formed by a flash memory, an EEPROM and / or a RAM. With such data memories, the data enters the memory via a fast serial or parallel data interface and can be retrieved again in the same way.
- the term "multimedia” is to be construed broadly in the present context, that is, in addition to the typical multimedia data may also be stored in the multimedia data memory, which spieltagen, a personal address book of the user or the like. Since the mobile storage of data and its mobile use is gaining more and more importance, it can be assumed that the user will very often have the remote control according to the invention with him. In contrast to the use of mobile radio services (such as GSM or UMTS), it is preferred for the remote control according to the invention that the data transfer takes place for free.
- mobile radio services such as GSM or UMTS
- the remote control has means for reproducing multimedia data.
- These means may in particular be formed by a suitable display and / or at least one loudspeaker.
- embodiments of the remote control according to the invention come into consideration, in which it is provided that it has at least one first interface, to which means for the reproduction of multimedia data are connected can.
- the means for reproducing multimedia data can be formed for example by a headphone and / or a separate display.
- the remote control according to the invention has means for compressing and / or decompressing multimedia data.
- the means for compressing and / or decompressing multimedia data can be formed in a manner known per se by hardware and / or software known to those skilled in the art.
- the remote control according to the invention can be advantageously further developed in that it has at least one second interface, via which configuration data, remote control data and / or multimedia data are transmitted by cable, radio, optical, and / or ultrasound and / or received can.
- the second interface can be, for example, a USB or FireWire interface, via which data can be exchanged, for example, with a computer.
- the second interface (or any additional interface) may be provided to forward the actual remote control commands.
- a likewise preferred development of the remote control according to the invention provides that it has a charge controller for charging at least one energy store, which can supply the remote control with energy.
- a charge controller for charging at least one energy store, which can supply the remote control with energy.
- a rechargeable battery is preferred whose state of charge can optionally be displayed on the display.
- the rechargeable battery can be charged via an interface to the computer (USB or FireWire / IEE1394).
- the multimedia data memory is adapted to store audio, photo and / or video data.
- the format of the data that can be stored in the multimedia data store is favorable.
- common standards include:
- the remote control according to the invention is advantageously further developed in that it has at least one operating element.
- operating elements for example, so-called “jog-dial” actuators and / or any suitable keys and / or pointing devices such as, for example, a touch pad come into consideration.
- the remote control 10 shown is a remote control for operating comfort functions of a motor vehicle such as auxiliary heating, air conditioning, stationary air conditioning, vehicle locking, theft protection, etc.
- this remote control has a multimedia data memory 12 which, for example, is replaced by a Flash memory, an EEPROM and / or RAM may be formed.
- the multimedia data storage is interchangeable by the user, so it is a memory card or the like.
- the means for reproducing multimedia data are in the form of a display 14 darge.
- a device for playback of electroacoustic signals may be provided, for example a loudspeaker, not shown.
- a first interface is in the form of a first socket 16 and a second socket 18.
- a headphone 44 can be connected to the first socket 16 as a means for reproducing multimedia data, while an additional display 46, which is for example larger than the display 14 and / or provided with a higher resolution, can be connected to the second socket 18 can be.
- means are provided for compressing and decompressing multimedia data, which are formed by a microprocessor-based control device 20.
- the controller 20 is also intended to control the entire operation of the remote control 10, including the physical management of the multimedia data storage 12 counts.
- a second interface 22, 24 which comprises a radio antenna 24 and a data interface 22 arranged under a removable cap 40, for example a USB or IEEE1394 interface.
- the remote control 10 can send and receive configuration data, remote control data and multimedia data. This can be done by cable, by radio, optically and / or by ultrasound.
- a charge controller 26 is provided, with which an energy store 28 can be charged in the form of a battery.
- an external source of energy for charging the energy Gieaires 28 may serve, for example, a computer which is connected via the reassure ⁇ point 22 with the remote control 10. According to the illustration of FIG.
- a plurality of operating elements are provided in the form of four keys 32, 34, 36, 38 and a "jog dial" operating element 30. Through these controls 30-38, the user can control all functions of the remote control 10. If the remote control 10 is connected to a computer, for example to exchange data, the operation of the remote control 10 can also be wholly or partly via the operating elements of the computer. Furthermore, an eyelet 42 is provided with which the remote control 10 can be attached to a key ring, for example. The dimensions of the remote control 10 are preferably chosen to be small, at least so that the user can easily carry the remote control.
