1. A method for controlling operation of a control apparatus having a transceiver for receiving transmissions from a tracking device, the transmissions including at least one of acceleration information, orientation information, and rotation information generated by a sensor in the tracking device, the method comprising:

  • receiving, by the control apparatus, a selection of one or more functions of the control apparatus for remote control;

    receiving, by the control apparatus, the transmissions of at least one of acceleration information, orientation information, and rotation information output by the sensor in the tracking device, wherein the at least one of acceleration information, orientation information, and rotation information is not processed by the tracking device to determine a location or a motion of the tracking device; and

    in response to receiving a notification of actuation of a single action multifunction apparatus on the tracking device;

    determining, by the control apparatus, a first set of motions of the tracking device corresponding to the received at least one of acceleration information, orientation information, and rotation information;
