Claims
- 1. An information processing system comprising:
- an information input unit for inputting information; and
- an information processing unit for processing the information input by said information input unit,
- wherein said information input unit comprises:
- memory means for storing a pass code assigned to said information input unit;
- trigger generation means for generating a trigger signal;
- timer means for measuring an elapse of a predetermined period of time; and
- transmission means for transmitting the pass code to said information processing unit in response to the trigger signal generated by said trigger generation means,
- wherein said trigger generation means generates the trigger signal at a time interval not less than the predetermined period of time measured by said timer means.
- 2. A system according to claim 1, wherein the pass code is uniquely assigned in correspondence with said information input unit.
- 3. A system according to claim 1, wherein said information input unit further includes switch means which is electrically connected/disconnected in response to a mechanical operation, and said trigger generation means generates the trigger signal in response to the electrical connection/disconnection of said switch means.
- 4. A system according to claim 1, wherein said transmission means performs transmission of a signal by radio.
- 5. An information input apparatus which inputs information and sends the input information to an information processing apparatus for processing the input information, said information input apparatus comprising:
- memory means for storing a pass code assigned to said information input apparatus;
- trigger generation means for generating a trigger signal;
- timer means for measuring an elapse of a predetermined period of time; and
- transmission means for transmitting the pass code to the information processing apparatus in response to the trigger signal generated by said trigger generation means,
- wherein said trigger generation means generates the trigger signal at a time interval not less than the predetermined period of time measured by said timer means.
- 6. An information input apparatus according to claim 5, wherein the pass code is uniquely assigned in correspondence with said information input apparatus.
- 7. An information input apparatus according to claim 5, further comprising switch means which is electrically connected/disconnected in response to a mechanical operation, wherein said trigger generation means generates the trigger signal in response to the electrical connection/disconnection of said switch means.
- 8. An information input apparatus according to claim 5, wherein said transmission means performs transmission of a signal by radio.
- 9. An information processing apparatus which processes information received from an information input apparatus, wherein said information input apparatus comprises:
- memory means for storing a pass code assigned to the information input apparatus;
- trigger generation means for generating a trigger signal;
- timer means for measuring an elapse of a predetermined period of time; and
- transmission means for transmitting the pass code to said information processing apparatus in response to the trigger signal generated by said trigger generation means,
- wherein said trigger generation means generates the trigger signal at a time interval not less than the predetermined period of time measured by said timer means,
- said information processing apparatus comprising:
- receiving means for receiving the information from the information input apparatus; and
- processing means for processing the information received by said receiving means.
- 10. An information processing apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the pass code is uniquely assigned in correspondence with the information input apparatus.
- 11. An information processing apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the information input apparatus further includes switch means which is electrically connected/disconnected in response to a mechanical operation, and said trigger generation means generates the trigger signal in response to the electrical connection/disconnection of said switch means.
- 12. An information processing apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the transmission means performs transmission of a signal by radio.
