Claims11
In combination with a global positioning system receiver including a speech generating portion, the improvement comprising a voice-over device including:
- a. a computerized data system disposed within said receiver for receiving and transmitting data compatible with said global positioning system receiver;
- b. a storage means operably connected to said computerized data system for storing at least one of a plurality of different voices, a plurality of different voices expressed in at least one of a particular language, a particular dialect, and a combination thereof;
- c. a selecting means in communication with said storage means for selecting at least one of said plurality of different voices, said plurality of different voices expressed in said at least one of said particular language, said particular dialect, and said combination thereof;
- d. a conversion means in communication with said selecting means for converting a voice vocalizing words from said speech generating portion of said global positioning system receiver, to at least one of said plurality of different voices, said plurality of different voices expressed in said at least one of said particular language, said particular dialect, and said combination thereof;
- and
- e. a voice transmitting means in communication with said conversion means for transmitting at least one of said plurality of different voices expressed in said at least one of said particular language, said particular dialect, and said combination thereof.
A method of utilizing a voice-over mechanism in a global positioning system comprising the steps of:
- a. providing a computerized data system for receiving and transmitting data compatible with a global positioning system;
- b. storing at least one of a plurality of different voices, a plurality of different voices expressed in at least one of a particular language, a particular dialect, and a combination thereof;
- c. selecting at least one of said plurality of different voices, said plurality of different voices expressed in said at least one of said particular language, said particular dialect, and said combination thereof;
- d. converting a voice vocalizing words from a speech generating portion of said global positioning system, to at least one of said plurality of different voices, said plurality of different voices expressed in said at least one of said particular language, said particular dialect, and said combination thereof;
- and
- e. transmitting at least one of said plurality of different voices, said plurality of different voices expressed in said at least one of said particular language, said particular dialect, and said combination thereof to said global positioning system.
An apparatus for use in a global positioning system having a computerized data system for receiving and transmitting data, a means for storing data, a means for selecting data, and a means converting data, said apparatus comprising a means for uploading data into said global positioning system.
