METHOD FOR COMBINING DATA SIGNALS AND VIDEO SIGNALS FOR TRANSMISSION TO VIDEO DISPLAY UNITS

摘要

A method capable of combining data signals and video signals for transmission to a video display unit. The method comprises the steps of generating a data signal, transmitting the data signal to an apparatus, receiving the data signal at the apparatus, receiving a video/audio signal at the apparatus, combining the video/audio signal with the data signal to form a single combined signal, and displaying the combined signal on a video display unit.

1. A method for simultaneously displaying data and a separate video signal on a video display, the method comprising:
identifying on a server one or more physical locations at which to display certain data; sending a file with said data from the server to each of one or more apparatuses at each of the identified physical locations; receiving at each of said apparatuses the file with said data; receiving at each of said apparatuses a video signal, wherein the video signal is separate from said data and comprises video for display; combining on each of said apparatuses said data with the video signal to form a single combined signal with said data and the video; and using the single combined signal to simultaneously display said data and the video on a video display.
