Abstract: An infrared remote control is encapsulated in a plastic moulding and has no physical controlling buttons or virtual touch screen buttons that uses motion to determine which remote control codes are to be transmitted to adjust the function of home audio visual equipment. The combination of a motion sensor (14) and a computer program running in an onboard microprocessor (15) enables the device to be used in any orientation. The user selects modes and causes the remote control device to broadcast infrared command signals as required to adjust the function of home audiovisual equipment at a distance by moving the device in certain predetermined patterns. The device signals its function to the user by a heartbeat style vibration pattern.
