Abstract
One or more sensors are configured to contextualize a series of user generated movements to control one or more electronic devices. For example, a set of earphones comprises one or more sensors for sensing a location of the earphones. The one or more sensors enable earphones such as a pair of bluetooth or earphones wirelessly coupled to a bluetooth enabled electronic device, the capability to understand the configuration of use of the earphones. Based on a location and use or non-use of the earphones, one or more contextual responses is able to be applied for a given action. In addition, a garment comprises one or more sensors for sensing a motion of a user as the garment is being used. The one or more sensors allow the user to control one or more electronic devices through a series of user generated movements.

1-26. (canceled)
An earphones system comprising:
- a. a holder body;
- b. an earphone;
- c. one or more sensors for sensing a use condition and a non-use condition of the earphone;
- d. a wireless control device for sending a signal to an electronic device to transmit sound to the earphone when the use condition is sensed, wherein the wireless control device sends the signal to an electronic device configured to provide audio to the earphone, when the earphone transitions from the non-use condition to the use condition, wherein playing audio is able to be transferred from the electronic device to the earphone when the earphone transitions from the non-use condition to the use condition;
- and
- e. one or more earphone magnets for releasably coupling the earphone with a holder body, wherein the one or more sensors sense when the earphones are not coupled to the holder body.
An earphone comprising:
- a. one or more sensors for sensing a use condition and a non-use condition of the earphone;
- b. a wireless control device for sending a signal to an electronic device to transmit sound to the earphone when the use condition is sensed, wherein the wireless control device sends the signal to an electronic device configured to provide audio to the earphone, when the earphone transitions from the non-use condition to the use condition, wherein playing audio is able to be transferred from the electronic device to the earphone when the earphone transitions from the non-use condition to the use condition;
- and
- c. one or more earphone magnets for releasably coupling the earphone with a holder body, wherein the one or more sensors sense when the earphones are not coupled to the holder body.
