Abstract

L'invention concerne un écran répéteur (10) conçu pour un téléphone (1) équipé d'un écran tactile et possédant une sortie vidéo ainsi qu'une entrée à commande par radiofréquence pour commander les fonctions du téléphone. L'écran répéteur comprend : a) un écran répéteur ayant un écran d'affichage répéteur (11) et un écran tactile répéteur (12) plus grand qu'un écran tactile (4) de téléphone (1), et b) une interface (13) servant à connecter la sortie vidéo (2) d'un téléphone (1) à écran tactile à l'écran d'affichage répéteur et transmettre les signaux RF avec des données qui représentent le fonctionnement de l'écran tactile répéteur à l'entrée à commande par radiofréquence du téléphone à écran tactile. Lors de l'utilisation, l'écran répéteur affiche une image plus grande que celle affichée sur le téléphone à écran tactile et l'écran tactile répéteur permet à l'utilisateur de faire fonctionner le téléphone à écran tactile.
