SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING THE POWER STATE OF REMOTE CONTROL ELECTRONICS
First Claim
1. A remote control device, comprising:
- circuitry configured to receive user input to wirelessly control at least one electronic device;
a power source electrically coupled to provide power to the circuitry; and
a power state controller configured to control a power state of the circuitry based on a state of the at least one electronic device.

Abstract
A remote control device may include circuitry configured to receive user input to wirelessly control an electronic device, a power source electrically coupled to provide power to the circuitry, and a power state controller configured to control a power state of the circuitry based on a state of the electronic device. An electronic device may be configured to be controlled by a remote control device, and may include an input device configured to receive a wireless signal from the remote control device, an output device configured to send a wireless signal to the remote control device, and a processor coupled to the input device. The processor may be configured to control a function of the electronic device based on the received signal, to determine information regarding the state of the electronic device, and to send the determined information regarding the state of the electronic device to the remote control device.
