Abstract

An information display system comprising a tag including a signal receiver, an image-memory-type display medium that displays a display image based on an image display signal, and a storage including a first storage region for storing identification information and the image display signal and a second storage region for storing recording information indicating a storage state of the image display signal in the first storage region; and a reader/writer including a contact electrode unit that contacts the signal receiver, an information recognition unit that reads the identification information and the recording information, a memory that stores image display information corresponding to the identification information and identification information, and a writing unit that transmits an image display signal based on the image display information and a write signal for changing the recording information to indicate that the image display signal has been stored through the contact electrode unit.

Claims (28)

1. An information display system comprising:

a tag comprising a signal receiving unit, an image-memory-type display medium that displays a display image on the basis of an image display signal, and a storage unit including a first storage region in which identification information and the image display signal are stored and a second storage region in which recording information indicating a storage state of the image display signal in the first storage region is stored; and

a reader/writer comprising a contact electrode unit that comes into contact with the signal receiving unit, an information recognition unit that reads from the tag the identification information stored in the first storage region and the recording information stored in the second storage region, a memory that stores identification information and image display information corresponding to the identification information, and a writing unit that transmits to the image-memory-type display medium an image display signal based on the image display information and a write signal for changing the recording information to indicate that the image display signal has been stored through the contact electrode unit,

wherein, in a case in which the contact electrode unit of the reader/writer comes into contact with the signal receiving unit of the tag, the reader/writer reads at least the recording information of the identification information and the recording information,

in a case in which the image display signal has not been stored, the reader/writer compares the identification information read by the information recognition unit with the identification information stored in the memory, and

in a case in which the identification information read by the information recognition unit is identical to the identification information stored in the memory, the writing unit transmits the image display signal based on the image display information corresponding to the identification information stored in the memory through the contact electrode unit such that the display image is displayed on the image-memory-type display medium and transmits the write signal.

2. The information display system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first storage region of the storage unit of the tag is capable of storing the image display signal for the display image only once.

3. The information display system according to claim 2 ,

wherein the storage unit of the tag is non-volatile.

4. The information display system according to claim 3 ,

wherein the image-memory-type display medium includes a display unit that displays the display image and a display control unit that makes the display unit display the display image on the basis of the image display signal transmitted from the reader/writer,

wherein the display control unit is driven be being supplied with a direct current signal or an alternating current signal with a predetermined voltage, and

wherein the reader/writer includes a power supply unit that supplies the direct current signal or the alternating current signal with the predetermined voltage to the display control unit of the image-memory-type display medium.

5. The information display system according to claim 2 ,

wherein the image-memory-type display medium includes a display unit that displays the display image and a display control unit that makes the display unit display the display image on the basis of the image display signal transmitted from the reader/writer,

wherein the display control unit is driven be being supplied with a direct current signal or an alternating current signal with a predetermined voltage, and

wherein the reader/writer includes a power supply unit that supplies the direct current signal or the alternating current signal with the predetermined voltage to the display control unit of the image-memory-type display medium.

6. The information display system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the storage unit of the tag is non-volatile.

7. The information display system according to claim 6 ,

wherein the image-memory-type display medium includes a display unit that displays the display image and a display control unit that makes the display unit display the display image on the basis of the image display signal transmitted from the reader/writer,

wherein the display control unit is driven be being supplied with a direct current signal or an alternating current signal with a predetermined voltage, and

wherein the reader/writer includes a power supply unit that supplies the direct current signal or the alternating current signal with the predetermined voltage to the display control unit of the image-memory-type display medium.

8. The information display system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the image-memory-type display medium includes a display unit that displays the display image and a display control unit that makes the display unit display the display image on the basis of the image display signal transmitted from the reader/writer,

wherein the display control unit is driven be being supplied with a direct current signal or an alternating current signal with a predetermined voltage, and

wherein the reader/writer includes a power supply unit that supplies the direct current signal or the alternating current signal with the predetermined voltage to the display control unit of the image-memory-type display medium.
