Abstract

See full text

An IC Card includes an image input device and an acoustic input device. A transmission controller transmits electrical signals received from the image input device or the acoustic input device to a telephone or communication line, or transmits signals received from the communication line through a first connector to a terminal such as a personal computer. A frame supports the image input device, and the acoustic input device, the transmission controller, while a panel fixed to the frame encloses the image input device, the acoustic input device and the transmission controller. Another type of IC card has a frame with a main body and an extension connected thereto. The extension encloses the image input device and the acoustic input device. In a modified IC card, at least one of the image input device and the acoustic input device includes a rotatable connecting member so that the direction of the device can be set in a wide range.
