Abstract: A portable electronic device includes a optical reception device, (R), a microcomputer (4) which is appropriate for processing the signals received, a display device (6), an electrical energy source for supplying the various circuits, a keyboard (8), and a device (12) for storing data. The microcomputer (4) is programmed to permit the user of the device to participate in a televised program which is unfolding according to a predetermined chronology by entering at the keyboard responses to questions posed on the screen during the unfolding of the program. Its application is to televised games.
Abstract: The portable electronic device (1) includes some optical reception devices (R), a microcomputer (4) suitable for processing the data received, a display device (6) to display data from the microcomputer (4), and an electrical energy source to supply the various circuits. The device includes a keyboard (8) which enables the user to also to key in data into the microcomputer (4), the latter being programmed to use the data from the optical reception devices (R) and/or from the keyboard (8), and to display results taking account of the data, possibly combined.
