Remote control via proximity data

A computer program product for interfacing with a remote physical device, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage device having program code embodied therewith, the program code executable by a processing unit to:

• determine a position of wearable sensors, Si and Sj;
• instruct a system to respond to a changed position of the wearable sensors Si and Sj, including program code to measure a first set of distances, Dij, between wearable sensors Si and Sj for the changed position, and to select an action and position rule to associate with the changed position, the selection to define a selected position rule;
• generate a signal that corresponds to the selected position rule;
• and
• assign the generated signal to the selected action, and calibrate the remote physical device with the selected action, including program code to transform a functional aspect of the remote physical device with the selected action.

A method for interfacing with a device, comprising:

• positioning wearable sensors, Si and Sj;
• instructing a system to respond to a changed position of the sensors, including measuring a first set of distances, Dij, between wearable sensors Si and Sj for the changed position, and selecting an action to associate with the changed position;
• calibrating the device with the selected action, including transforming a functional aspect of the device with the selected action;
• and
• assigning a signal to the changed position and associated action.
