TRANSFERABLE INTELLIGENT CONTROL DEVICE
First Claim
1. An integrated intelligent system, comprising:
- a first intelligent electronic device to perform a first function;
a second intelligent electronic device to perform a second function;
a transferable intelligent control device (TICD); and
a cross product bus which couples the first intelligent electronic device to the transferable control device, wherein the TICD partially controls behaviors of the intelligent electronic device by sending commands over the cross product bus to the first intelligent electronic device and the TICD partially controls behaviors of the second intelligent electronic device to perform the second function.

Abstract
An integrated intelligent system includes a first intelligent electronic device, a second intelligent electronic device, a transferable intelligent control device (TICD) and a cross product bus. The first intelligent electronic device performs a first function and the second intelligent electronic device performs a second function. The cross product bus couples the first intelligent electronic device to the transferable intelligent control device. The TICD partially controls behaviors of the intelligent electronic device by sending commands over the cross product bus to the first intelligent electronic device and the TICD partially controls behaviors of the second intelligent electronic device to perform the second function. The TICD is first attached to the first intelligent electronic device to partially control the behaviors of the first electronic device, then detached from the first electronic device, and then attached to the second intelligent electronic device to perform the second function.

6. A transferable intelligent control device to be utilized with intelligent electronic devices, comprising:
-
a master application module including central logic and software routines for controlling the TICD'"'"'s operation in addition to behavior of a connected device a hardware abstraction module; and a bus control module to provides a standard communication link for recognizing devices connected to a cross product bus, reading relevant information from these devices and sending commands back for execution by the target device or devices that the TICD is controlling, wherein the Hardware Abstraction Module receives general instructions or commands from the master application module, and transmits commands to the device the TICD is controlling through the bus control module. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 18)
