US 2014/0176809 A1 · RING-TYPE REMOTE CONTROL DEVICE, SCALING CONTROL METHOD AND TAP CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

Abstract

A ring-type remote control device, a scaling control method and a tap control method are provided. The ring-type remote control device includes a processing unit, a wireless communication module, a motion sensor module and a proximity sensor. The motion sensor module detects position information of the ring-type remote control device. The proximity sensor detects a distance variation between the first and second fingers of a user. When the processing unit determines the distance decreases according to the position information and the distance information, a reduced signal is generated and transferred to the wireless communication module. When the processing unit determines the distance increases, an enlarged signal is generated and transferred to the wireless communication module. The wireless communication module transmits a command corresponding to the reduced signal or the enlarged signal to an interactive receiving device, so as to generate an interactive operation.

Dependent claims

A ring-type remote control device, adapted to be disposed surrounding a first finger of a user, the ring-type remote control device comprising:

a processing unit;
a wireless communication module coupled to the processing unit;
a motion sensor module coupled to the processing unit, detecting position information of the ring-type remote control device;
and
a first proximity sensor coupled to the processing unit, detecting distance information between a second finger and the first finger of the user,
wherein when the processing unit determines a distance between the first finger and the second finger decreases according to the position information and the distance information, the processing unit generates a reduced signal to the wireless communication module, and when the processing unit determines the distance between the first finger and the second finger increases, the processing unit generates an enlarged signal to the wireless communication module, wherein the wireless communication module transmits a command corresponding to the reduced signal or the enlarged signal to an interactive receiving device.
