Remote control with motion sensitive devices

摘要

Techniques for using a variety of motion sensitive signals to remotely control an existing electronic device or system are described. Output signals from a motion sensitive device may be in a different form from those of a pre-defined controlling device. According to one aspect of the present invention, a controlled device is designed to respond to signals from a touch screen or touch screen-like signals. The output signals from a motion sensitive device include motion sensitive inputs to a controlled device and converted into touch-screen like signals that are coupled to the controlled device or programs being executed in the controlled device, subsequently causing the behavior of the controlled device to change or respond thereto, without reconfiguration of the applications running on the controlled device.
