Radio Controller System And Method For Remote Devices
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a surveillance system component that includes a speaker assembly, an image capturing device, and a transceiver;
the speaker assembly configured to output a sound representing a spoken message input at a remote handheld device executing an instance of a controller application;
the transceiver configured to output image data representing images captured by the image capturing device; and
a non-transitory storage medium storing instructions for execution by a wireless telephone, the instructions comprising the controller application and operable when executed to facilitate;
(1) receipt by the wireless telephone of the image data;
(2) simultaneous presentation by the wireless telephone of a source identifier associated with the image capturing device and a second source identifier associated with a second image capturing device;
(3) presentation by the wireless telephone of a first image based on the image data from the image capturing device and a second image based on second image data from the second image capturing device; and
(4) inputting of a sound at the wireless telephone to be output by the speaker assembly.

Abstract
A system and method for remote device control are disclosed. A system incorporating teachings of the present disclosure may include a radio controlled toy and a controller for controlling the toy. In some embodiments, the controller may have an input mechanism and a housing component that defines a cavity, within which may be located a wireless wide area transceiver and a wireless local area transceiver. Some controllers may also have an operating system for the controller and an application resident on the controller and operable to convert inputs received via the input mechanism into commands for the toy. The controller may have a microprocessor operable to execute the application and to cause the commands to be communicated to the toy using the wireless local area transceiver.
