1. An appliance control apparatus comprising:

  • an acceleration sensor which senses an acceleration resulting from a user motion;

    a storage unit which stores a common control attribute set for a plurality of apparatuses, with the common control attribute set for a plurality of apparatuses corresponding to the sensed acceleration from a user motion;

    a recognition unit which recognizes a control-object apparatus and the common control attribute set to the control-object apparatus from the acceleration sensed by the sensor with reference to the storage unit;

    said recognition unit includes a control-object recognition unit which recognizes the control-object apparatus from the acceleration sensed by the acceleration sensor and previously-set acceleration information of the control-object apparatus according to the user motion;

    wherein the acceleration information includes a recognition number distribution of the acceleration according to the control-object apparatuses, andwherein the control-object recognition unit recognizes a control-object apparatus having a high recognition number distribution;

    a control command generator which generates a control command according to the control-object apparatus and the control attribute recognized by the recognition unit; and

    a transmitter which transmits the control command generated by the control command generator to the control-object apparatus recognized by the recognition unit.
