发明名称 Control interface for controlling multiple functional devices or a multiple purpose device having a plurality of modes
摘要 The present invention relates to intuitive based control elements and interfaces and devices using said intuitive based control elements. In certain embodiments, machine interfaces such as remote control devices for operation of various devices are provided. More specifically, machine interfaces according to embodiments of the invention herein include one or more control elements in the form of shapes and/or positioned indicia to facilitate operation by users. Control elements provided herein having intuitive shapes and/or positions described above as associated with the man-machine interfaces may also be provided integral with various devices. For example, personal electronic devices, personal care devices, personal healthcare devices, communications devices and personal comfort devices may benefit from control elements having intuitive shapes and/or positions associated with the function as described herein. In one aspect, a control interface is provided for controlling multiple functional devices. The control interface includes at least one control element in the form of, or positioned in a configuration on the control interface corresponding to, a part of the a face or body. The control element performs a function of the device associated with the part of the face or body. The control interface further includes a selector for selecting one from a plurality of functional devices. In another aspect, a control interface is provided for controlling a multiple purpose device having a plurality of modes. The control interface includes at least one control element in the form of, or positioned in a configuration on the control device corresponding to, a part of the a face or body. The control element performs a function of the device associated with the part of the face or body. The control interface further includes a selector for selecting one from a plurality of modes.
