Abstract
A toy includes a toy proper and accessories. The toy proper includes a processing unit having a microprocessor or a microcontroller incorporated therein. An autonomous electrical supply supplies the processing unit with electrical energy. An assembly of at least one of a sensor and an actuator connected to the processing unit carries out at least one type of function. An inductive coupler is connected to the processing unit. The accessories associated with the toy proper each include at least one inductive label for interacting electromagnetically with the inductive coupler so that a current of defined frequency flows through said at least one inductive coupler connected to said at least one processing unit and said inductive coupler exchanges with said inductive labels binary data corresponding to phase or amplitude states of the frequency modulation.
