Abstract
The invention relates to a system with a portable device for the transmission of a signal to a second device, wherein the portable device is wearable on the body of a user. The portable device includes at least two electrodes and transmitter electronics for the generation of an electrical signal between the electrodes, such that the signal is able to be coupled by the electrodes into the body of the user and detected by at least one electrode of the second device. A portable device or also a second device (receiver) is distinguished in that at least one of the electrodes is at least partially transparent.
