Two sensor movement
First Claim
1. A method of using a pair of sensors to control the state of an object comprising:
- a) simultaneously activating a first sensor and a second sensor of said pair of sensors followed by simultaneously deactivating said first sensor and said second sensor to exit a first mode and enter a second mode;
b) independently activating said first sensor to control the state of said object in a first state; and
c) deactivating said first sensor to stop said control in said first state;
d) independently activating said second sensor to control the state of said object in a second state; and
e) deactivating said second sensor to stop said control in said second state;
f) simultaneously activating said first sensor and said second sensor followed by simultaneously deactivating said first sensor and said second sensor to exit said second mode and enter a third mode;
g) wherein the respective modes are entered and exited based on the activation or deactivation of only the two respective first and second sensors and no other sensors.

6. A method of using a pair of sensors to control the state of an object comprising:
-
a) independently activating a first sensor of said pair of sensors to control the state of said object in a first state; and b) deactivating said first sensor to stop said control in said first state; c) independently activating a second sensor of said pair of sensors to control the state of said object in a second state; and d) deactivating said second sensor to stop said control in said second state; e) simultaneously activating said first sensor and said second sensor to control the state of said object in a third state; and f) simultaneously deactivating said first sensor and said second sensor to stop said control in said third state; g) wherein the respective states are controlled based on the activation or deactivation of only the two respective sensors for each state and no other sensors. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method of using a pair of sensors to control an object comprising:
-
a) simultaneously activating a first sensor and a second sensor of said pair of sensors to exit a first mode and enter a second mode; b) activating said first sensor to control said object in a first state; and c) activating said second sensor to control said object in a second state; d) simultaneously activating said first sensor and said second sensor to exit said second mode and enter a third mode; e) wherein the respective modes are entered and exited based on the activation or deactivation of only the two respective first and second sensors and no other sensors.

20. A method of using a pair of sensors to control an object comprising:
-
a) activating a first sensor to control said object in a first state; and b) activating a second sensor to control said object in a second state; c) simultaneously activating said first sensor and said second sensor of said pair of sensors to exit a first mode and enter a second mode; d) activating said first sensor to control said object in a third state; and e) activating said second sensor to control said object in a fourth state; f) simultaneously activating said first sensor and said second sensor to exit said second mode and enter a third mode; g) wherein the respective modes are entered and exited based on the activation or deactivation of only the two respective first and second sensors and no other sensors.
