Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0867851A2] The traffic information display system transmits traffic information for a traffic region via a broadcast medium to a user terminal. The terminal is a common computer system (9) with a monitor (12). The computer system (9) has a software program to represent a digital street map of the traffic region. An additional device (1) is connected to the computer system (9). The additional device (1) has a receiver (3), an antenna (2), a processor (4) and a chip read unit (5). The additional device (1) can be used in a reception mode by inserting a standard chip (7), and this converts the received traffic information into a serial data stream. The data stream is represented by means of the software program, as visual traffic information with symbols and/or variable characters and/or digits in position in the street map, on the monitor screen.
