Abstract
Abstract A voice interactive sportscard, which through the use of an electronic microchip speech recognition, synthesis, and control processing device, actively draws the attention of the user by generating an interactive and changing conversation with the user, or the user may participate and be in audience between a set of voice interactive sportscards having their own group conversation. Generate physical interaction with the user by the use of a micro-vibrator and protect the voice interactive sportscard artwork from wear by the use of a non-mechanical touch sensitive activation/mode switch.
