Interactive toy

Abstract

This invention is directed to an interactive toy in which a user operates an instrument in association with the toy and one or more corresponding images show up on a display.

1 . A toy including:
 a platform wherein the platform further includes a processor, a memory, a speaker and a memory;   an instrument electrically connected to the processor;   a display electrically connected to the processor;   a plaything;   a node positioned within the plaything, so that the instrument is responsive to the node resulting in a response signal sent to the processor and to the display.   
   
   
       2 . The toy of  claim 1  further comprising a sensor positioned within the platform. 
   
   
       3 . The toy of  claim 1  further comprising a selector positioned on the platform and electrically connected to the processor. 
   
   
       4 . The toy of  claim 1  further comprising an output cable and an output plug, wherein the output cable electrically connects the processor to the output plug. 
   
   
       5 . The toy of  claim 4 , wherein the output plug is a RCA plug. 
   
   
       6 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the instrument receives radio signals and sends a responsive signal to the CPU. 
   
   
       7 . The toy of  claim 6 , where in the node positioned within the plaything is an RFID tag. 
   
   
       8 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the instrument reads magnetically encoded data and sends a responsive signal to the CPU. 
   
   
       9 . The toy of  claim 8 , where in the node positioned within the plaything includes magnetically encoded data. 
   
   
       10 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the plaything is a stuffed animal. 
   
   
       11 . The toy of  claim 1 , wherein the plaything is a toy car. 
   
   
       12 . A toy including:
 a platform wherein the platform further includes a processor, a memory, a speaker, a selector;   an instrument electrically connected to the processor;   a plaything;   a node positioned within the plaything, so that the instrument is responsive to the node resulting in a response signal sent to the processor and to the display.   
   
   
       13 . The toy of  claim 12 , wherein the output comprises a cable and an RCA plug. 
   
   
       14 . The toy of  claim 12 , wherein the instrument receives radio frequencies and sends a responsive signal to the CPU. 
   
   
       15 . The toy of  claim 14 , wherein the node positioned within the plaything is a RFID tag. 
   
   
       16 . The toy of  claim 12 , wherein the instrument reads magnetically encoded data and sends a responsive signal to the CPU. 
   
   
       17 . The toy of  claim 16 , where in the node positioned within the plaything includes magnetically encoded data.
