1. A control system for controlling at least one electronic device, the control system comprising:
- at least one RFID device;
a patch comprising an RFID reader antenna, the RFID reader antenna configured to receive a signal from the at least one RFID device;
an RFID reader configured to decode the received signal;
a processor configured to identify at least one command associated with the decoded received signal; and
a transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit the at least one command to the at least one electronic device, the at least one electronic device being separate from the control system.
