Intelligent personal carrier

Abstract

The intelligent personal carrier (IPC) provides a carrier for personal items such as money, credit cards, drivers licenses and other articles and allows electronic devices such as the mobile phone, MP3 player, PDA, camera, health monitors and other devices to be attached to the exterior, leaving them accessible for operation. The IPC may be attached to a strap to attach to the user, such as a lanyard. The strap may have integrated electronics allowing for the control and operation of the attached electronic device. The IPC stores, protects, communicates, detects and tracks personal information. The type of information and personal items to be managed may be in both hard form, such as credit cards, and identification cards, and digitally, in the form of data files.
