The motor module can comprise several pager motors, whose supplied power can be individually adjusted by the control module in accordance with the control signal. The control signal is transmitted through Bluetooth from a user device that allows a user to input the desired direction and speed, or the desired mode of operation. In addition, the moving device may operate in various modes, such as the cycle mode, the random mode, and the free mode. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A moving device for moving in accordance with a control signal, comprising: a plurality of device legs; a communication module to receive the control signal; and a control module to control a motor module according to the control signal, wherein the motor module comprises a first pager motor and a second pager motor. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The moving device of claim 1, wherein the control signal comprises direction information, and the control module adjusts the first pager motor and the second pager motor in accordance with the direction information. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The moving device of claim 2, wherein the control signal further comprises speed information, and the control module uses a pulse-width modulation method to adjust the first pager motor and the second pager motor in accordance with the speed information. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The moving device of claim 3, wherein the control signal further comprises operation mode information to direct the moving device to operate in a selected mode. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The moving device of claim 4, wherein the selected mode is a cycle mode, and the moving device moves in a circular shape. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The moving device of claim 4, wherein the selected mode is a cycle mode, and the moving device moves in a user-selected shape. ### Claim 7 (depends on 3) The moving device of claim 3, wherein the selected mode is a random mode, and the moving device moves randomly. ### Claim 8 (depends on 3) The moving device of claim 3, wherein the selected mode is an adapted mode, and the moving device moves in accordance with a source signal. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The moving device of claim 8, wherein the source signal is a user-selected song signal, and the moving device moves in accordance with the tempo of the user-selected song signal. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The moving device of claim 8, wherein the source signal is a user-selected song signal, and the moving device moves in accordance with the volume of the user-selected song signal. ### Claim 11 (depends on 3) The moving device of claim 3, wherein the selected mode is a free mode, and the moving device moves in accordance with a locus input by a user through a touchscreen display. ### Claim 12 (depends on 3) The moving device of claim 3, wherein the communication module receives the control signal through Bluetooth. ### Claim 13 (depends on 3) The moving device of claim 3, wherein the communication module receives the control signal from a user device that comprises a graphical user interface. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The moving device of claim 13, wherein the graphical user interface comprises a control wheel that allows the user to provide a desired moving direction and a desired moving speed. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The moving device of claim 14, wherein the graphical user interface further comprises at least three mode bottoms. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The moving device of claim 15, wherein the plurality of device legs have an inward-bending configuration. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The moving device of claim 16, wherein the pager module further comprises a third pager motor and a fourth pager motor. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The moving device of claim 17 further comprising an insect-shaped body shell. ### Claim 19 A method to control a moving device, comprising: providing a graphical user interface to allow a user to select a desired direction and a desired speed; transmitting information related to the desired direction and the desired speed wirelessly to a moving device; and controlling a motor module in the moving device according to the information, wherein the motor module comprises a first pager motor and a second pager motor. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The method of claim 19, wherein said controlling comprises using a pulse-width modulation method.
