`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The obiect of the invention is a device according to the introductory part of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Ciaim 1 for personal communication, data collection and data processing. The
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`device consists of a smali-sized housing comprising a data processing unit
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`which contains a data processor with peripherai circuits and memory units, a
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`dispiay, a user interface, a number of peripheral device interfaces, a power
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`source, preferably a battery, and application software.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Another object or the invention is a circuit card according to the introduction of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Claim 8 which can be fitted to the card siot arranged in connection with a
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`device intended for personal communication, data coliection and processing, in
`
`particuiar.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Personal communication devices and/or mobile organisers. such as notebook
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`computers and the like, known from before, are small,
`
`
`light-weight, portabie
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`and handwheid or laptop workstations. A number of accessories and application
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`programs which offer service functions can be instailed in such personal
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`devices, when necessary. A such notebook computer
`
`
`
`
`is disciosed
`
`
`
`
`in
`
`
`
`
`international patent application WO~93I14458.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The notebook computer can be equipped with an eiectronic scanner by means
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`of which both text and figures can be read into the memory of the computer.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`This helps to eliminate the drawbacks of small keyboards,
`
`
`
`
`in particular. Data
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`required in many connections. such as contact information inciuded in business
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`cards, can be read into the memory of the computer. However, electronic
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`scanners comprise fine-mechanicei parts which wear and may cause problems.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Especially paper feeding arrangements fitted in smaii notebook computers are
`
`probiematic.

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`is fitted in the thickened part 15a of the card. Camera 14a, such as a CCD
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`{Charged Coupled Device) camera,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`is preferably a camera focused on a fixed

`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`in principle, the structure of both camera card 15 and camera unit 14 conforms
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`to the block diagram shown in Figure 5. Camera card 15 consists of camera
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`arrangement 140 which comprises camera 143 and optics
`
`
`
`‘ieb,
`
`
`
`image
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`processing unit 14c, battery 21 and interface 22 to external systems which in
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`this case is a standard PCMCiA interface concerning camera card 15.
`
`
`
`image
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`processing unit 14c comprises microprocessor 23 and a number or memory
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`units 24. Optics 14b are provided by a suitable lens arrangement, by means of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`which a sharp image is obtained of the object to be scanned in on the image
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`plane of camera 14a. Camera 14a is preferably impiemented as a CCD camera
`
`
`
`comprising a two-dimensional
`
`
`
`
`
`light—sensitive CCD sensor,
`
`
`
`
`
`the resoiution of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`which is from 250 k pixel as high as to 26.2 Mpixei. Memory units 24
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`7 preferably comprise two kinds of memory units: volatile memory units, such as
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`DRAM and SRAM units used as scratch pad storages, and non~volatila memory
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`units, such as FLASH and EPROM units which are used as base program
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`memories. Power to the FCMCIA card is supplied via the PCMCEA interface
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`from the notebook computer. Battery 21 is mainiy used to ensure that images
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`are maintained in the voiatiie memory units if the PCMCEA card is detached
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`from the card siot. Battery 21 can be aiso used for the same purpose in camera
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`unit 14 (Figure 1} integrated in the notebook computer.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Camera unit 14 functions in the following way, whether it is fixedly integrated
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`to the notebook computer or connectable to the card slot of the notebook
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`computer as camera card 15: a picture of a document or three-dimensional
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`environment taken by camera 148 thrOugh optics 14b is transferred to image
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`processing unit 14c and throogh its microprocessor 23 to memory unit 24,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`such as RAM. When the user wishes to View the picture thus taken on display
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`9 of the notebook computer, he/she can do that
`
`
`
`
`
`immediately. The desired
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`image information is read from memory unit 24 by means of microprocessor 23
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`of camera card 15, and the image information is transmitted to processor 4 of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the mobile organiser along PCMClA interface 22 or a corresponding interface

`
`
`
`Camera unit 14 comprises a character recognition software which is similar to
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`that used in computers provided with pen interfaces, for instance. Previously
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`known pattern recognition software can be used to recognise graphicai objects.
`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`After a text and/or an image has been scanned in the notebook computer, the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`user can start an application program to process the data to suit his/her
`
`
`
`purposes
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The application program of camera unit 14 functions, e.g.,

`
`
`the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`application program. The user first scans in the business card by camera 14a,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`then the picture of the business card and the information contained in it are
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`transferred from camera unit 14 to memory unit 13 of the notebook computer
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`and via data processing unit 2 to display 9. After the scanned image 34 of the

`procedures have been carried out,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the information contained in the business
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`card can be used as address directory for
`
`
`
`
`
`ietters, as
`
`
`telephone memo
`

`
`
`
`information or for other suitabie purposes.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Other kinds of information can also be scanned in the notebook computer by
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`means of camera unit 14. The document can be a note written on a paper by
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`hand, for instance. The user scans in the document, stores it
`
`
`
`
`
`in the memory
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`unit of the notebook computer and processes it as required. A graphics hendier
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`software can be arranged to function with camera unit 14.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`it can function in
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the foliowing manner: the user draws a graphieai object, such as a circle or a
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`iine, on a paper. The images are scanned in by camera 14a to memory unit 13
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`of the notebook computer and the user starts the graphics handier software
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`using the keyboard or the mouse. The scanned picture of the graphical object is
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`then shown on the dispiay. The user can seiect a picture on the display and
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`modify the object by means of the graphics handier appiication to iook like a
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`desired obiect. such as a regular circle.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The user can also select the character recognition software after the picture on
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the paper is scanned in the notebook computer by camera unit 14. The
`
`character
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`recognition software converts the hand written text
`
`
`
`
`
`into ASCII
`
`characters.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`indistinct characters are guessed by the software or the user is
`
`
`
`
`asked for further information.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The simplest aiternative is to store the information scanned in memory unit 13
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`of the mobiie organiser by camera unit 14, in the form of a bitmap. This type of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`image information is used in facsimile/telefax transmission. The same kind of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`image storing can arise be used for storing incoming teiefax messages.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The teiefax functions can be implemented in the toiiowing way: the user writes
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`notes on a paper and the characters on the paper are scanned in memory unit
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`13 of the notebook computer by camera unit 34. The user selects the teiefax
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`application from the application programs and defines a
`
`
`
`receiver
`
`

`for
`
`
`
`the

`When a user interface based on camera unit 14 is integrated in connection with
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the notebook computer and especially its housing 1, obvious advantages are
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`accomplished. With such camera unit 14 the user can scan different written
`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
