Abstract

L'invention porte sur un procédé et un appareil de distribution d'informations diffusées sous forme de données numériques ou d'images permettant de capter sélectivement ces images et d'interagir avec elles sans devoir recourir aucunement à des liaisons bidirectionnelles. L'appareil reçoit une transmission continue de données diffusées par les procédés unidirectionnels usuels en télévision (transmission directe, par satellite ou par câble) (21, 22, 23). Ces informations sont recueillies en fonction de critères établis par le téléspectateur (8) puis stockées (5) en vue de leur examen interactif (6, 7) par le téléspectateur. Le procédé et l'appareil peuvent servir dans un système où doivent être distribuées des quantités massives de données interactives alors que l'infrastructure du réseau de télécommunications ne permet pas de liaisons bidirectionnelles. Le recueil d'informations se fait de manière à ne capturer que la portion d'informations intéressant le téléspectateur en fonction de ses sujets d'intérêt. De cette manière, un réseau de données à images interactives peut fournir une large gamme d'images interactives concernant des biens immobiliers, des appartements, des automobiles, et des listes d'emplois.
