Multimodal fusion apparatus capable of remotely controlling electronic devices and method thereof

A multimodal fusion apparatus for remotely controlling a number of electronic devices, comprising:

• an input processing unit for recognizing multimodal commands of a user and processing the multimodal commands as inferable input information;
• a rule storing unit for storing control commands for each electronic device, to remotely control a number of electronic devices;
• a device selecting unit for selecting the electronic device to be controlled and transmitting remote control commands to the selected electronic device;
• a control command receiving unit for receiving the control commands from the electronic device;
• and
• a multimodal control unit for remotely controlling the selected electronic device in response to the multimodal commands of the user, by reading the control commands of the relevant electronic device selected to be controlled, from the rule storing unit.
