Abstract
Image information to be transmitted is formed, audio information and coordinates information which is made correspond to the audio information and to a position of the image information are formed. The image information, audio information, and coordinates information are transmitted by a single communication. When receiving, the image information, audio information, and coordinates information which is made correspond to the audio information and to the position of the image information are received. The image information and audio information are reproduced. The position indicated by the coordinates information is displayed on the image. The contents of the image can be further easily understood on the reception side of the image. Such a display is realized by a simple system.
