1. An apparatus comprising:
- a motion detection unit adapted to detect at least one motion of a body of the apparatus;
a data storage unit adapted to store command codes for a controlled device and information on at least one specific motion of the apparatus;
a transmission unit adapted to transmit data to the controlled device; and
a control unit adapted to obtain information from an electrical signal detected from the motion detection unit, and further adapted to control the transmission unit so that if said at least one motion corresponds to said at least one specific motion, a corresponding command code is output to the controlled device.

Abstract
An apparatus having a motion detection unit adapted to detect at least one motion of a body of the apparatus. A data storage unit is provided to store command codes for a controlled device and information on at least one specific motion of the apparatus. A transmission unit transmits data to the controlled device. A control unit obtains information from an electrical signal detected from the motion detection unit. It further controls the transmission unit so that if the motion corresponds to the specific motion, a corresponding command code is output to the controlled device.

14. A method comprising:
-
detecting at least one motion information from motions of a body;
searching whether command codes corresponding to the detected motion exist in established command codes for controlling a controlled device; and
transmitting the corresponding command codes to the controlled device if command codes exist for the controlled device corresponding to the motion information. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
