6 and 7 show an example of the processing flow in each of the main toy body 2 and the sub toy body 3.

First, the user activates each of the main toy body 2 and the sub toy body 3, and the article 4 is attached to the sub toy body 3. In the sub-toy body 3 to which the article 4 is attached, the identification information of the article 4 is acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30 (step Sb1).

The control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that the identification information has been acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30, reads the first operation information from the storage unit 34, and causes the communication unit 33 to transmit the first operation information. (Step Sb2).

Further, the control unit 35 recognizes the identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30 (step Sb3).

The control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that has received the first operation information transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub toy body 3 in the communication unit 20 in step Sb1 is associated with the first operation information and is stored in the storage unit 22. The stored first effect information is read from the storage unit 22, and the effect output unit 21 is operated based on the first effect information (step Sa1).

Subsequently, the user performs a predetermined operation on the article 4, and the first detection unit 31 of the sub-toy body 3 detects the predetermined operation on the article 4 (step Sb4).

When the control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that the first detection unit 31 has detected a predetermined operation on the article 4, the storage unit 34 gives the second operation information corresponding to the identification information recognized in step Sb2. Is read and the communication unit 33 is made to transmit the second operation information (step Sb5).

The control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that has received the second operation information transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub toy body 3 in the communication unit 20 in step Sb5 first receives the second operation information received this time and the previous time. It is determined whether the second operation information is the same as or does not match (including the case where there is no second operation information received last time) (step Sa2). Here, it is assumed that the main toy body 2 receives the second operation information for the first time after the activation, and the control unit 23 determines that the second operation information received this time and the second operation information received last time do not match. And.

When the control unit 23 determines that the second operation information received this time and the second operation information received last time do not match, the control unit 23 is associated with the second operation information received this time and is stored in the storage unit 22. The second effect information is read from the storage unit 22, and the effect output unit 21 is operated based on the second effect information (step Sa3).

Then, the control unit 23 stores the second operation information received this time in the storage unit 22 (step Sa4).

Here, in the example shown in FIG. 6, after the second operation information is transmitted from the communication unit 33 in step Sb5, the article 4 attached to the sub-toy body 3 is removed from the sub-toy body 3, and different identification is performed. The article 4 holding the information is attached to the sub-toy body 3. In the sub-toy body 3 to which the article 4 is attached, the identification information of the article 4 is acquired again by the identification information acquisition unit 30 (step Sb6).

The control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that the identification information has been acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30, reads the first operation information from the storage unit 34, and causes the communication unit 33 to transmit the first operation information. (Step Sb7).

Further, the control unit 35 recognizes the identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30 (step Sb8).

The control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that has received the first operation information transmitted from the sub-toy body 3 communication unit 33 in step Sb6 by the communication unit 20 is associated with the first operation information and stored in the storage unit 22. The first effect information is read from the storage unit 22, and the effect output unit 21 is operated based on the first effect information (step Sa5).

Subsequently, the user performs a predetermined operation on the article 4, and the first detection unit 31 of the sub-toy body 3 detects the predetermined operation on the article 4 (step Sb9).

When the control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that the first detection unit 31 has detected a predetermined operation on the article 4, the storage unit 34 gives the second operation information corresponding to the identification information recognized in step Sb8. Is read and the communication unit 33 is made to transmit the second operation information (step Sb10).

The control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that received the second operation information transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub toy body 3 in step Sb10 by the communication unit 20 received the second operation information received this time and the second operation information received last time. 2 It is determined whether or not the operation information matches (step Sa6). The second operation information received last time in step Sa4 is stored in the storage unit 22, but in this example, since the article 4 is exchanged between step Sb5 and step Sb6, the second operation information received this time is received. 2 The operation information and the second operation information stored in the storage unit 22 are different from each other, and the control unit 35 determines that they do not match.

Therefore, the control unit 23 reads the second effect information stored in the storage unit 22 in association with the second operation information received this time from the storage unit 22, and operates the effect output unit 21 based on the second effect information. (Step Sa7).

Then, the control unit 23 stores the second operation information received this time in the storage unit 22 (step Sa8).

On the other hand, in the example shown in FIG. 7, in the example shown in FIG. 6, after the second operation information is transmitted from the communication unit 33 in step Sb5, the article 4 mounted on the secondary toy body 3 is again subjected to. A predetermined operation is performed, and the predetermined operation for the article 4 is detected by the first detection unit 31 of the sub-toy body 3 (step Sb11).

When the control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that the first detection unit 31 has detected a predetermined operation on the article 4, the storage unit 34 gives the second operation information corresponding to the identification information recognized in step Sb3. Is read and the communication unit 33 is made to transmit the second operation information (step Sb12).

The control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that received the second operation information transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub toy body 3 in step Sb12 by the communication unit 20 received the second operation information received this time and the second operation information received last time. 2 It is determined whether the operation information matches or does not match (including the case where there is no second operation information received last time) (step Sa9). The second operation information received last time in step Sa4 is stored in the storage unit 22, and in this example, the article 4 is not exchanged between steps Sb5 and Sb6, so that the second operation information received this time is received. 2 The operation information and the second operation information stored in the storage unit 22 are the same, and the control unit 35 determines that they match.

When the control unit 23 determines that the second operation information received this time and the second operation information received last time match, the third operation unit 23 is associated with the second operation information received this time and stored in the storage unit 22. The effect information is read from the storage unit 22, and the effect output unit 21 is operated based on the third effect information (step Sa10). The third effect information is different from the second effect information read in step Sa3 corresponding to the same second operation information. Therefore, the effect based on the third effect information is also the second effect in step Sa3. It is different from the production based on the production information.

Then, the control unit 23 stores the second operation information received this time in the storage unit 22 (step Sa11).

FIG. 8 shows another example of the processing flow in each of the main toy body 2 and the sub toy body 3.

In the example shown in FIG. 8, at an arbitrary timing before a predetermined operation is performed on the article 4 mounted on the secondary toy body 3, that is, before the second operation information is transmitted from the secondary toy body 3 to the main toy body 2. A predetermined operation is performed on the sub toy body 3 for switching the operation mode of the main toy body 2 from the first operation mode to the second operation mode.

First, the user activates each of the main toy body 2 and the sub toy body 3, and the article 4 is attached to the sub toy body 3. In the sub-toy body 3 to which the article 4 is attached, the identification information of the article 4 is acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30 (step Sd1).

The control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that the identification information has been acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30, reads the first operation information from the storage unit 34, and causes the communication unit 33 to transmit the first operation information. (Step Sd2).

Further, the control unit 35 recognizes the identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition unit 30 (step Sd3).

The control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that has received the first operation information transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub toy body 3 in the communication unit 20 in step Sb1 is associated with the first operation information and is stored in the storage unit 22. The stored first effect information is read from the storage unit 22, and the effect output unit 21 is operated based on the first effect information (step Sc1).

Subsequently, the user performs a predetermined operation on the sub-toy body 3, and the second detection unit 32 of the sub-toy body 3 detects the predetermined operation on the sub-toy body 3 (step Sd4). The predetermined operation on the sub-toy body 3 may be performed immediately after the operation of the sub-toy body 3, that is, before the article 4 is attached to the sub-toy body 3.

When the control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that a predetermined operation for the sub-toy body 3 is detected by the second detection unit 32, the control unit 35 reads out the third operation information from the storage unit 34 and causes the communication unit 33 to read the third operation information. 3 The operation information is transmitted (step Sd5).

The control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that has received the third operation information transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub toy body 3 in step Sd5 by the communication unit 20 sets the operation mode from the first operation mode to the second operation mode. Switch to (step Sc2).

Subsequently, the user performs a predetermined operation on the article 4, and the first detection unit 31 of the sub-toy body 3 detects the predetermined operation on the article 4 (step Sd6).

When the control unit 35 of the sub-toy body 3 detects that the first detection unit 31 has detected a predetermined operation on the article 4, the storage unit 34 gives the second operation information corresponding to the identification information recognized in step Sd3. Is read and the communication unit 33 is made to transmit the second operation information (step Sd7).

In this example, the control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 that has received the second operation information transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub toy body 3 in step Sd7 by the communication unit 20 has an operation mode of the second operation mode. , The fourth stored in the storage unit 22 in association with the second operation information received this time without determining whether or not the second operation information received this time and the second operation information received last time match. The effect information is read from the storage unit 22, and the effect output unit 21 is operated based on the fourth effect information (step Sc3). The fourth effect information is different from the second effect information read in step Sa3 shown in FIG. 6 corresponding to the same second operation information. Therefore, the effect based on the fourth effect information is also shown in FIG. It is different from the effect based on the second effect information in step Sa3 shown.

Then, the control unit 23 switches the operation mode from the second operation mode to the first operation mode (step Sc4).

As described above, according to the effect output toy 1, the main toy body 2, the sub toy body 3 and the article 4 are placed at different positions and played (as in the present embodiment, the main toy body 2 is used by the belt 5). The auxiliary toy body 3 can be attached to the abdomen of the person by the wristband 6 to the arm, and the like can be worn at another position on the user's body to play), and the identification attached to the article 4 It is possible to output the effect from the main toy body 2 placed at a position different from that of the sub toy body 3 for acquiring the information, and it is possible to give the user an unexpected surprise. As a result, the interest of the production output toy 1 can be enhanced.

In addition, an effect is output from the main toy body 2 by a predetermined operation on the article 4 mounted on the sub toy body 3, and the article 4 functions not only as a mere holding body of identification information but also as an operation unit in the sub toy body 3. Can be made to. As a result, the effect of the production output toy 1 can be further enhanced.

In the above-mentioned effect output toy 1, the effect is output only from the main toy body 2, but the effect may be output from the article 4 in synchronization with the effect of the main toy body 2. For example, a communication unit that exchanges information with and from the main toy body 2 (or at least the main toy body can receive information from 2), an effect output unit, a storage unit, and a control unit are attached to the article 4. When the effect is output in the main toy body 2, a control signal is transmitted from the main toy body 2 to the article 4 under the control of the control unit 23 of the main toy body 2 to the control unit of the article 4. Then, from the effect information stored in the storage unit of the article 4, the effect information corresponding to the effect output by the main toy body 2 is instructed, and the output timing of the effect based on the effect information is instructed. It should be. By outputting the effect from the article 4 other than the sub-toy body 3 that acquires the identification information attached to the article 4, the interest of the effect output toy 1 can be further enhanced. Alternatively, the article 4 itself, which includes the effect output unit, the storage unit that stores the article effect information, and the control unit, is further provided with a mounting detection unit, and the article 4 is mounted on the sub-toy body 3. Almost at the same time that the first operation information is transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub-toy body 3, the mounting detection unit detects that the article 4 itself is mounted on the sub-toy body 3, and the control unit of the article 4 The article effect information may be read from the storage unit, and the article effect based on the article effect information may be output from the effect output unit. As a result, it is possible to output a highly entertaining effect in which the first effect based on the first effect information corresponding to the first operation information transmitted by mounting the article 4 and the article effect based on the article effect information are combined. Will be able to. Further, the article production information does not produce the article production based on the article production information during the output time during which the first production based on the first production information corresponding to the first operation information is output in the main toy body 2 (for example,). It may have a non-production period T1 to be (silence), and may have a production period T2 in which the production is output (for example, audio output) after the non-production period T1. Then, for example, after the article production is started based on the article production information, the article production is performed during the output time during which the first effect based on the first effect information corresponding to the first operation information is output in the main toy body 2. Since it corresponds to the non-production period T1, the production output from the article does not overlap with the first production, and after the end of the first production, that is, after the non-production period T1 ends, the production period T2 is entered and the production is output. Therefore, the first effect and the article effect can be continuously output as if they were a series of effects (or, if the first effect and the article effect are each voice, the main toy body 2 and the article 4 are as if they were. It is possible to output a production that seems to be "interacting"), and it can be a highly interesting production. Alternatively, an operation detection unit is further provided in the article 4 itself including the effect output unit, the storage unit that stores the article effect information, and the control unit, and it is indicated that a predetermined operation has been performed on the article 4. Almost at the same time when the specific 3 is detected by the first detection unit 31, the operation detection unit detects that the article 4 itself has performed a predetermined operation, and the control unit of the article 4 reads the article effect information from the storage unit and outputs the effect. The article production based on the article production information may be output from the unit. As a result, the hobby is a combination of the second effect based on the second effect information according to the second operation information transmitted by the detection of the predetermined operation in the first detection unit and the article effect based on the article effect information. It will be possible to output a high-quality effect. Further, as for the article effect information, the article effect based on the article effect is mainly a toy body based on the second effect information corresponding to the second operation information transmitted by the detection of the predetermined operation by the first detection unit. During the output time output in 2, there is a non-production period T1 in which no effect (for example, no sound) is produced, and after the non-production period T1, the production period T2 in which the effect is output (for example, audio output) is set. It may be something that you should have. Then, for example, after the article production is started based on the article production information, the second production based on the second production information corresponding to the second operation information transmitted by the detection of the predetermined operation by the first detection unit is the main toy. During the output time output in the specific 2, since the article production corresponds to the non-production period T1, the production output from the article does not overlap with the second production, and after the end of the second production, that is, no production. After the period T1 ends, the production period T2 is entered and the production is output, so that the second production and the article production can be continuously output like a series of productions (or the second production and the article production can be output). If each is a voice, it is possible to output an effect as if the main toy body 2 and the article 4 are "engaged"), and the effect can be highly entertaining.

Further, the effect may be output from the sub toy body 3 in synchronization with the effect of the main toy body 2. For example, a communication unit that exchanges information with and from the main toy body 2 (or at least can receive information from the main toy body 2), an effect output unit, a storage unit, and a control unit are sub-toy bodies. Provided in 3, when the effect is output in the main toy body 2, a control signal is transmitted from the main toy body 2 to the sub toy body 3 under the control of the control unit 23 of the main toy body 2, and the sub toy body 2 is provided. Instructs the control unit 3 of the effect information corresponding to the effect output in the main toy body 2 from the effect information stored in the storage unit of the sub toy body 3, and based on the effect information. The output timing of the effect may be instructed. By outputting the effect from the sub-toy body 3 that acquires the identification information attached to the article 4, the interest of the effect output toy 1 can be further enhanced. Alternatively, the sub-toy body 3 is provided with a sub-toy body effect output unit, a storage unit that stores the sub-toy body effect information, and a control unit, and the identification information acquisition unit 30 acquires the identification information of the article 4. Almost at the same time that the detection is detected and the first operation information is transmitted from the communication unit 33 of the sub-toy body 3, the control unit of the sub-toy body 3 reads the sub-toy body effect information from the storage unit and from the effect output unit. The sub-toy body effect based on the sub-toy body effect information may be output. As a result, it is possible to output a highly interesting production in which the first production based on the first production information according to the first operation information and the sub-toy body production based on the sub-toy body production information are combined. Become. Further, the sub-toy body effect information is the sub-toy body effect based on the sub-toy body effect, and the first effect based on the first effect information corresponding to the first operation information is output in the main toy body 2 during the output time. It may have a non-production period T1 for no production (for example, no sound), and may have a production period T2 for which the production is output (for example, audio output) after the non-production period T1. Then, for example, after starting the sub-toy body effect based on the sub-toy body effect information, during the output time during which the first effect based on the first effect information corresponding to the first operation information is output in the main toy body 2. Since the sub-toy body production corresponds to the non-production period T1, the production output from the sub-toy body 3 does not overlap with the first production, and is present after the end of the first production, that is, after the non-production period T1 ends. Since the production is output in the production period T2, the first production and the sub-toy body production can be continuously output like a series of productions (or the first production and the sub-toy body production are voiced respectively). If this is the case, it is possible to output an effect as if the main toy body 2 and the sub toy body 3 are "engaged"), and the effect can be highly entertaining. Alternatively, in the sub-toy body 3 provided with the sub-toy body effect output unit, the storage unit that stores the sub-toy body effect information, the control unit, and the first detection unit described above, a predetermined operation can be performed on the article 4. Almost at the same time when the sub-toy body 3 detects that this has been done by the first detection unit 31, the control unit of the sub-toy body 3 reads the sub-toy body effect information from the storage unit and is based on the sub-toy body effect information from the effect output unit. The sub-toy body effect may be output. As a result, the second effect based on the second effect information corresponding to the second operation information transmitted by the detection of the predetermined operation in the first detection unit and the sub-toy body effect based on the sub-toy body effect information are combined. It will be possible to output a highly entertaining production. Further, the sub-toy body effect information is a second effect based on the sub-toy body effect based on the second effect information according to the second operation information transmitted by the detection of the predetermined operation by the first detection unit. During the output time output in the main toy body 2, there is a non-production period T1 in which no production (for example, silence) is performed, and after the non-production period T1, the production is output (for example, audio output). It may be such that the production period T2 is provided. Then, for example, after starting the sub-toy body effect based on the sub-toy body effect information, the second effect information based on the second effect information transmitted by the detection of the predetermined operation by the first detection unit is performed. During the output time during which the 2 effects are output in the main toy body 2, the sub toy body effect corresponds to the non-effect period T1, so that the effect output from the sub toy body 3 does not overlap with the second effect. After the end of the second production, that is, after the non-production period T1 ends, the production period T2 is entered and the production is output. Therefore, the second production and the sub-toy body production are continuously output like a series of productions. (Or, if the second production and the sub-toy body production are each voice, it is possible to output the production as if the main toy body 2 and the sub-toy body 3 are "engaged". It can be a highly entertaining production.
