Abstract
An apparatus is provided for controlling a display. The apparatus is moveable by an individual user and includes a motion sensor for detecting and providing an indication of one or more types of movement of the apparatus. The apparatus also includes a transmitter, which is configured to receive the indication of movement, either directly or indirectly, from the motion sensor. The transmitter is further configured to transmit at least one signal based on movement of the apparatus which is configured to initiate display changes in data displayed in a remote display device. A system and a method for controlling a display are also provided.

18. A method comprising:
-
providing a remote control device defining orthogonal main and transverse axes and configured to be movable by an individual user; detecting rotation of the remote control device around the transverse axis and transmitting a signal to cause data displayed on a remote display device to scroll in a first direction; and detecting rotation of the remote control device around a normal axis and transmitting a signal to cause the displayed data to scroll in a second direction, the normal axis being perpendicular to a plane defined by the main and transverse axes and the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
