The RAM is used to store the input data. The touch panel 7 is formed in a film shape and attached to the surface of the display unit 8. The touch panel 7 is a type of pressure-sensitive tablet and outputs position information of a touched position. Of course, the touch panel 7 is transparent. The display unit 8 has a liquid crystal display 8A and displays the data supplied from the control unit 5. The liquid crystal display 8A of the display unit 8 is provided on the back side of the ID card body as shown in FIG.

In FIG. 1, a small and thin battery such as a paper battery is used for the power source unit 9 to generate the power source required by the apparatus. The detector 3 demodulates the read command from the FSK modulated wave (frequency shift keying) received by the transmission / reception coil 2 and supplies it to the 1/0 converter 4. 1/0 converter 4
Converts the demodulated read command into "1" and "0" signals and outputs them. The control unit 5 controls each unit of the apparatus, and performs the following control according to a program written in a ROM provided inside.

When handwriting is input to the touch panel 7, the data is taken in and analyzed as to whether it is a data or a command. If it is determined to be data in this analysis, characters and symbols corresponding to the data are stored in the RAM of the memory unit 6 and displayed on the display unit 8. Here, FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a state in which characters are being input, and by inputting "u" and "ra" as shown in this figure, "ura" is displayed.

On the other hand, if the data is determined to be a command, the process according to the content is performed. That is, the RAM of the memory unit 6
If the data stored in is read, the data is read and supplied to the display unit 8. If the calculation is to be performed, the calculation is performed on the basis of the simultaneously fetched data, and the result is supplied to the display unit 8. For example, [3],
When [X], [4], and [=] are continuously input, this arithmetic expression is executed, and the result ([12]) is displayed on the display unit 8. The input of the command is performed by, for example, touching a part of the touch panel 7 among a plurality of sections to which various commands are assigned, which is a target. By decoding the read command output from the 1/0 conversion unit 4, the ID information stored in the ROM of the memory unit 6 is read and supplied to the 1/0 conversion unit 4. Further, the image data stored in the ROM of the memory unit 6 is read out and supplied to the 1/0 conversion unit 4.

(B) Structure of Card Reading Device In FIG. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes a card reading device, which is a transmitting / receiving coil 11, a power amplifying unit 12, a modulating unit 13, an oscillating unit 14, and a 1/0 converting unit 15. , 16 and amplification / detection unit 17
A control unit 18, a data buffer 19, a signal output unit 20, and an unlocking unit 21. Transmit / receive coil 1
Reference numeral 1 is composed of a rod-shaped ferrite core and a coil wound around this core. In this case, since the energy is concentrated in the length direction by using the rod-shaped ferrite core, a directivity characteristic of drawing a figure 8 in a direction perpendicular to the coil winding direction is obtained. In this case, this is because the magnetic flux density is formed around the magnetic body when the magnetic body is inserted in the center of the coil, and this makes it possible to obtain an antenna with good reception sensitivity only in the central direction of the magnetic body. .

Transmission power is supplied from the power amplifier 12 to the transmission / reception coil 11. The modulation unit 13 is converted by the 1/0 conversion unit 15 based on the oscillation output from the oscillation unit 14 and converted into the FSK modulated wave of the radio frequency corresponding to the signals of "1" and "0". The 1/0 conversion unit 15 converts the read command from the control unit 18 into codes of "1" and "0" and outputs the code. In this case, the read command from the control unit 18 is output every predetermined time. The amplification / detection unit 17 amplifies the radio wave received by the transmission / reception coil 11 and then
The ID information from the card 1 is detected and supplied to the 1/0 converter 16. The 1/0 converter 16 converts the ID information demodulated by the amplifier / detector 17 into codes of "1" and "0" and outputs the codes. The control unit 18 includes a CPU, ROM and R not shown.

Is a so-called work memory used in the operation.

The control unit 18 outputs a read command at predetermined time intervals, while fetching the ID information from the ID card 1 while the read command is not output. In this case, when the ID information is fetched, it is determined whether or not the ID information is stored in the data buffer 19, and if it is determined that the ID information is stored, an unlock signal is output to the unlock unit 21. Then, the ID information is output via the signal output unit 20. The unlocking unit 21 drives a lock relay built in the door, and drives the lock relay in a direction to unlock the door when an unlocking signal for unlocking is output from the control unit 18. The memory section 6 corresponds to personal identification information storage means, data storage means, and image data storage means. The display unit 8 corresponds to a display means. The control unit 5 corresponds to a control means.

B. Operation of ID Card FIGS. 4 and 5 are flowcharts showing the operation of the ID card 1. First, in step S10, it is determined whether handwriting is input. If it is determined in this determination that handwriting is input, the process proceeds to step S12, and the input data is analyzed. That is, it is analyzed whether at least the input data is a character, a numerical value, a calculation symbol, or a data read. When it is determined that the data input in step S14 is a character, the process proceeds from step S14 to step S16, and the input character is stored in the RAM of the memory unit 6. Then, in step S18, the character is displayed on the liquid crystal display 8A. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, "U" is displayed by tracing "U". After performing the process of displaying one character, the process returns to step S10. Here, by further tracing with "ra", "ra" is displayed.

When it is determined in step S14 that the input data is not a character and the process proceeds to step S20, it is determined whether or not it is a numerical value. If it is determined that the value is a numerical value in this determination, the process proceeds to step S22,
The input numerical value is stored in the RAM of the memory unit 6. Then, in step S24, the numerical value is displayed on the liquid crystal display 8A. After performing this process, the process returns to step S10. On the other hand, if it is determined that the input data is not a numerical value, the process proceeds to step S26, and it is determined whether it is an operation symbol. If it is determined in this determination that the symbol is an arithmetic symbol, the process proceeds to step S28 and arithmetic processing is performed. After the calculation processing, the calculation result is displayed in step S30. After performing this process, the process returns to step S10.

If it is determined in step S26 that the symbol is not a calculation symbol, it is determined in step S32 whether data is read. In this determination, if it is determined that the data is read, the process proceeds to step S34, and the data stored in the RAM of the memory unit 6 is read. After reading the data, the data is displayed in step S36. In this case, if there is a plurality of data, the designated one is read and displayed. After performing this processing, the process returns to step S10. If it is determined that the data is not read in the determination of step S32, step S32
Other processing is performed at 38, and then the process returns to step S10.

On the other hand, if it is determined that there is no handwriting input in the determination in step S10, step S40
(See FIG. 7 hereinafter), the output of the 1/0 converter 4 is captured. Then, the process proceeds to step S42, and it is determined whether or not there is a read command for reading the ID information in the output of the 1/0 converter 4 which has been fetched at the present time. In this determination, if it is determined that there is no read command, the process directly exits and returns to step S10. If it is determined that there is a read command, the process proceeds to step S44, and the ID information stored in the ROM of the memory unit 6 is read. Then, in step S46, the ID information is displayed on the liquid crystal display 8A.

After the processing of displaying the ID information is performed, the process proceeds to step S48, and the 1 / th
It is determined whether or not the output of the 0 conversion unit 4 further includes a read command for reading image data. In this determination, if it is determined that there is no read command, the process exits and the process returns to step S10. If it is determined that there is a read command, the process proceeds to step S50, where R of the memory unit 6 is read.
The image data stored in the OM is read. Then, in step S52, the image data is displayed on the liquid crystal display 8A. When the image data is read, as shown in FIG.
The face of the user is displayed as shown in. in this case,
Even if a fake photograph is pasted on the surface of the ID card 1, the stored image data can be displayed to identify the person on the spot.

As described above, in this embodiment, by tracing the touch panel 7, the characters and numerical values are captured, displayed and stored. Further, the numerical value and the arithmetic symbol are respectively taken in, the arithmetic operation is performed, and the result is displayed. Further, by touching a portion of the touch panel 7 for reading data, the stored data is read and displayed. Therefore, in addition to the function as an ID card, it can be used as a memo pad or a calculator, so that the added value is increased as an ID card.

Further, in this embodiment, when there is a read command in the output of the 1/0 converter 4, the ID information is read out, and the image data of the face of the user is read out and displayed. It Therefore, when the operation of reading the ID card is performed, the face of the user of the ID card 1 is displayed, so that it is possible to reliably determine whether or not the user is the ID person, and in terms of security as compared to confirmation of the ID information. Reliability is dramatically improved. In addition, when a photograph of the user is pasted on the surface of the ID card 1, forgery may occur, but in the case of the present invention, even if the photograph is forged, it is possible to collate with the person by reading the stored image data. Forgery can be prevented because it is.

Although the non-contact type ID card 1 for transmitting the ID information is used in the embodiment, a contact type ID card or a contact type ID card provided with a magnetic stripe area for magnetically recording the ID information may be used. An ID card combined with a non-contact type may be used. These ID cards are proof of identity,
Any type may be used as long as it is used for door opening / closing control, entrance / exit management, and prepaid for dining rooms and vending machines. In addition to the non-contact type and the contact type, there is an IC card, which may be used. IC cards have been conventionally used for recording health management data of users. Further, in the embodiment, the face of the user himself / herself is imaged and stored, but a fingerprint or the like other than the face may be imaged and stored.

[0025]

According to the ID card of the invention of claim 1,
Since we added memo function and calculator function to the ID card used for identification, door opening / closing control, entrance / exit management, prepaid for cafeterias and vending machines, we spend most of the time not using the basic functions. It can be effectively used and the added value as an ID card can be increased. In this case, since the ID card is always worn, memos and calculations can be made without choosing the place. According to the ID card of the invention of claim 2,
Since the characteristic part of the user himself / herself can be displayed when necessary, the collation with the person himself / herself becomes easy, and the reliability is greatly improved in terms of security. Further, when the photograph of the user is pasted on the surface of the ID card, forgery may occur, but in the present invention, even if the photograph is forged, it is possible to collate with the person by reading the stored image data.
