1. A remote control device comprising:
- a detector that detects a time-dependent change of a position of a recognition target object;
a motion recognition unit that recognizes a gesture corresponding to the time-dependent change of the position of the recognition target object detected by the detector;
a controller that generates a control signal based on the gesture recognized by the motion recognition unit; and
a transmitter that transmits the control signal to an apparatus having a drivable portion to command a movement of the drivable portion,wherein the controller generates a first control signal based on the gesture recognized by the motion recognition unit, the first control signal instructing the apparatus to move the drivable portion by a predetermined movement amount in a preset direction,wherein the controller generates a second control signal when the same gesture is recognized again by the motion recognition unit within a predetermined time period after the gesture is recognized by the motion recognition unit, the second control signal instructing the apparatus to move the drivable portion to a maximum movable range of the drivable portion in the preset direction.

6. An apparatus controlling system comprising:
-
an apparatus having a drivable portion; and a remote controller for controlling a movement of the drivable portion, wherein the remote controller includes; a detector that detects a time-dependent change of a position of a recognition target object; a motion recognition unit that recognizes a gesture corresponding to the time-dependent change of the position of the recognition target object detected by the detector; a controller that generates a control signal based on the gesture recognized by the motion recognition unit; and a transmitter that transmits the control signal to the apparatus to command the movement of the drivable portion, wherein the controller generates a first control signal based on the gesture recognized by the motion recognition unit, the first control signal instructing the apparatus to move the drivable portion by a predetermined movement amount in a preset direction, and wherein the controller generates a second control signal when the same gesture is recognized again by the motion recognition unit within a predetermined time period after the gesture is recognized by the motion recognition unit, the second control signal instructing the apparatus to move the drivable portion to a maximum movable range of the drivable portion in the preset direction. - View Dependent Claims (7)
