METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COMMUNICATING CONTROL INFORMATION BY A WEARABLE DEVICE TO CONTROL MOBILE AND CONSUMER ELECTRONIC DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method for communicating control information by a wearable device comprising:
- determining a first movement according to a first degree of freedom as being gesture-related and a second movement according to a second degree of freedom as being gesture-related;
generating a first set of possibly performed gestures based on the first movement;
generating a second set of possibly performed gestures based on the second movement;
inferring, from the first and second sets, whether the first movement is representative of an intended command; and
transmitting information based on the inference.

Abstract
A method for communicating control information by a wearable device is disclosed. The method includes determining a first movement according to a first degree of freedom as being gesture-related and a second movement according to a second degree of freedom as being gesture-related; generating a first set of possibly performed gestures based on the first movement; generating a second set of possibly performed gestures based on the second movement; inferring, from the first and second sets, whether the first movement is representative of an intended command; and transmitting information based on the inference. An apparatus for performing the method is also disclosed.

25. A wearable device, comprising:
-
at least one antenna; a processing system configured to; determine a first movement according to a first degree of freedom as being gesture-related, wherein the determined movement is used to create a first set of possibly performed gestures; determine a second movement according to a second degree of freedom as being gesture-related, wherein the second determined movement is used to create a second set of possibly performed gestures; and infer, from the first and second sets, whether the first movement is representative of an intended command; and a transmitter coupled to the processing system and the at least one antenna, and configured to transmit information, via the at least one antenna, based on the inference.

26. A computer-program product for communicating control information by a wearable device, comprising a computer-readable medium comprising instructions executable to:
-
determine a first movement according to a first degree of freedom as being gesture-related, wherein the determined movement is used to create a first set of possibly performed gestures; determine a second movement according to a second degree of freedom as being gesture-related, wherein the second determined movement is used to create a second set of possibly performed gestures; infer, from the first and second sets, whether the first movement is representative of an intended command; and transmit information based on the inference.
