Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008056049A1] The invention relates to a method for defining a game area for a video game system. The system comprises a remote-controlled vehicle (1) and an electronic entity (3) for the remote control of the vehicle (1), and the method includes the following steps: acquiring the ground position of the vehicle (1) through a position sensor located on the vehicle (1); transmitting the ground position of the vehicle (1) to the electronic entity (3); establishing a connection between the electronic entity (3) and a database (17) containing aerial views of the ground; selecting in the database (17) an aerial view corresponding to the ground position transmitted to the electronic entity (3); downloading the aerial view selected in the database (17) to the electronic entity (3); and integrating the downloaded aerial view into a video game running on the electronic entity (3).
