Description

Multifunctional smart card

A smart card, especially a reusable multi-functional smart card.

Cards are used to record text or images and are often used for identification and labeling, such as ID cards, business cards, etc.

In group activities or large gatherings, since there are many participants, in order to effectively identify the participants, identification cards are often issued to the participants. Through the name, position, photo and other information on the identification card, the participants can communicate with each other.

However, since the information on the top of the ID card is mostly printed or handwritten, the existing ID cards can only be used once. For example, although the handwritten text can be modified on paper ID cards, their material is easily damaged and difficult to reuse. Although plastic ID cards are not easy to damage, it is difficult to modify the printed information and they cannot be recycled.

It can be seen from this that the current paper or plastic cards used for identity identification are used in large quantities but are difficult to reuse, and they cannot provide additional functions other than identity identification. Not only do they cost a lot, but they also cannot provide additional product benefits. Therefore, the current cards still need further improvement.

In view of this, the present invention provides a multifunctional smart card, in order to provide an identity identification function that can update information and reuse, and further combine with a sensor to provide a variety of sensing functions.

To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the novel multifunctional smart card includes: a display device; a communication unit for receiving an identity identification information; a plurality of physiological sensors, each of which is used to sense and generate a physiological sensing information; a storage unit, connected to the communication unit and the plurality of physiological sensors, and storing the identity identification information and each of the physiological sensing information; a processor, connected to the display device, the communication unit and the storage unit, the processor controls the display device to display an identity identification screen according to the identity identification information, and controls the display device to display a sensing information screen according to each of the physiological sensing information.

In the novel multifunctional smart card, the processor controls the display device to display the identification screen according to the identification information received by the communication unit. When the content or object of the identification needs to be changed, the communication unit only needs to receive the updated identification information, and the processor can control the display device to display the new identification screen according to the new identification information. Compared with the known identification card, the novel multifunctional smart card can be reused on the one hand, reducing the cost of re-making the identification card, and on the other hand, it can combine the multiple physiological sensors and display the corresponding sensing information screen for the user to view at any time, further improving the product benefits of the multifunctional smart card.
