[0032] By providing the connection socket 5, the light emitting module 2 of the smart card realizes a modular design. This means that the light emitting module 2 can be replaced or repaired as an independent component without disassembling or reassembling the entire card body 1. This design improves the maintainability and scalability of the smart card, and the light emitting module 2 can be of different colors or patterns.
[0033] The card body 1 is provided with a light strip 6 , which is arranged inside the card body 1 around the outline of the card body 1 .
[0034] The lighting of the light strip 6 can be used as a prompt signal to inform the user of the status of the smart card or to distinguish the smart card at night. This prompt function helps to improve the interaction experience between the user and the smart card. The light strip 6 is arranged around the outline of the card body 1. When the light strip 6 is lit, it can add a bright halo to the smart card, making it more prominent and attractive visually. This design makes the smart card stand out from many cards and enhances the user's recognition and memory.
[0035] The light strip 6 is provided with a fluorescent layer 14 , and the fluorescent layer 14 is a semi-transparent coating of an inorganic fluorescent light-emitting matrix.
[0036] The design of the fluorescent layer 14 can improve and enhance the luminous effect of the light strip 6.
