Abstract
A state machine may be implemented in hardware by representing each state with one operational code (opcode) such that each opcode may be read from memory in sequential order. The state machine includes a plurality of states linked by at least one transition triggered by data input. The data input may be motion sensor data such that the state machine is configured to recognize a pattern of motion corresponding to a gesture or an activity.
