PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable telephone that can be used as a remote monitor or a simple monitor for remote medical care. SOLUTION: This portable telephone 1 is provided with a video telephone function which performs real-time image transfer by using a next-generation communication system, such as the W-CDMA, etc., having a high transmission capacity. The side which requests a connecting destination to control a camera transfers a control command generated by means of a control section 13 by operating various kinds of keys, etc., to a radio transmitting-receiving section 12 and transmits the command by radio from an antenna 11. On the side where the camera is controlled, a control section 13 analyzes the control command received through the antenna 11 and transmitting-receiving section 12 and causes the camera to make the action corresponding to the command. An external I/O section 14 controls the action of the camera by using control data transmitted from the control section 13. |
