Abstract
An apparatus includes an interface, a communication device and a processor. The interface may be configured to detect an input. The communication device may be configured to establish a connection with a user device and send an activation signal to the user device. The processor may be configured to emulate an input device compatible with the user device, receive the input from the interface and generate the activation signal in response to the input. The activation signal may be generated in a format compatible with the input device that causes the user device to execute a command.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- an interface configured to detect an input;
- a communication device configured to establish a connection with a user device and send an activation signal to the user device;
- and
- a processor configured to emulate an input device compatible with the user device, receive the input from the interface and generate the activation signal in response to the input, wherein the activation signal is generated in a format compatible with the input device that causes the user device to execute a command.
An apparatus comprising:
- an interface configured to detect an input;
- a communication device configured to establish a connection with a user device and send an activation signal to the user device;
- and
- a processor configured to emulate a keyboard compatible with the user device, receive the input from the interface, and generate the activation signal in response to the input;
- wherein the activation signal is generated in a format compatible with the input device that causes the user device to execute a command;
- and
- wherein the activation signal emulates two spacebar inputs by the keyboard.
An apparatus comprising:
- an interface configured to detect an input generated by a home automation system;
- a communication device configured to establish a connection with a user device and send an activation signal to the user device;
- and
- a processor configured to emulate a keyboard compatible with the user device, receive the input from the interface, and generate the activation signal in response to the input;
- wherein the activation signal is generated in a format compatible with the input device that causes the user device to execute a command;
- and
- wherein the activation signal emulates two spacebar inputs by the keyboard.
