1. An apparatus comprising:
- a transmitter system configured to transmit electromagnetic signals in a form of a beam; and
a controller configured to cause the transmitter system to transmit the beam such that a motion detector is activated when the beam encounters the motion detector, the controller configured to select a number of frequencies for the beam to couple to a number of electrical components in the motion detector and transmit the beam with the number of frequencies such that the beam couples to the number of electrical components in the motion detector in a manner that activates the motion detector when the motion detector device encounters the beam.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for activating a motion detector. An electromagnetic signal is transmitted in a form of a beam. The beam is configured to activate the motion detector when the beam encounters the motion detector. The beam is moved to a location in which the motion detector is present such that the motion detector activates.

10. A method for activating a motion detector, the method comprising:
-
transmitting an electromagnetic signal in a form of a beam, wherein the beam is configured to activate the motion detector when the beam encounters the motion detector; moving the beam to a location in which the motion detector is present such that the motion detector activates; and controlling the transmitting the electromagnetic signal in the form of a beam so as to select a number of frequencies for the beam to couple to a number of electrical components in the motion detector and transmit the beam with the number of frequencies such that the beam couples to the number of electrical components in the motion detector in a manner that activates the motion detector when the motion detector device encounters the beam. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
