## Abstract

A wearable gesture control interface apparatus is used to control a controllable device based on gestures provided by a user. The wearable gesture control interface apparatus includes (i) sensors configured to detect user orientation and movement and generate corresponding sensor data and (ii) a microcontroller configured to: sample the sensor data from the sensors, determine whether the sensor data from one of the sensors meets transmission criteria; and if the sensor data meets the transmission criteria, transmitting control data corresponding to all of the sensors to the controllable device.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for controlling an application of a controllable device based on user gestures performed by a user, comprising:
at a wearable gesture control interface apparatus having a microcontroller, a plurality of sensors for detecting user gestures performed by the user, and a memory storing programs for execution by the microcontroller:
sampling sensor data from the plurality of sensors in response to the user gestures;
determining whether the sensor data from at least one, less than all, of the plurality of sensors meets transmission criteria; and
in accordance with a determination that the sensor data from the at least one, less than all, of the plurality of sensors meets the transmission criteria, transmitting control data corresponding to the sensor data from the plurality of sensors to the controllable device.
