    摘要: A game programming system uses rewritable cartridges that are compatible with commercially available game systems to produce game cartridges at a point-of-sale location so that retailers only need to stock sufficient uniquely designed game blanks to meet consumer demand. A game programmer or programming device loads digital content from computer storage to a rewritable game cartridge incorporating reprogrammable flash memory. The system includes flash rewritable cartridge identification hardware that allows verification of the cartridge to identify it as proprietary to a particular manufacturer or authorized dealer. The system provides for game content to be erased from the cartridge and new game content to be programmed so that the cartridge can be reused time after time to house any number of programs. During a cartridge write operation, a game programmer interface accepts data stored in a personal computer (PC) and fills first in first out (FIFO) memory. A sequencer generates addresses, proper commands, control signals, and timing signals, and sends the game content from the FIFO memory to the game programmer which passes the information to the reprogrammable game cartridge. The sequencer enables the game programming system to write data to the reprogrammable game cartridge very rapidly. The game programmer provides an interface between the game program storage and reprogrammable game cartridge. The programmer may include multiple slots or sockets and accommodate cartridges from different manufacturers with different game formats.

    摘要: A computer system includes a central processing unit (CPU) for providing computer output signals; a non-computational base transceiver coupled with the CPU. The base transceiver comprises an interface for communicating with the CPU; a modulator for receiving computer output signals and providing modulated signals representing said computer output signals; and a transmitter for receiving said modulated signals, and transmitting said modulated signals via wireless media; and a non-computational remote transceiver comprising: a receiver for receiving signals via wireless media; a transmitter for transmitting signals via wireless media.
