Abstract:
A control device and method for controlling a plurality of targeted devices. The control device includes orientation and direction sensors for measuring orientation and direction of the control device relative to the environment, a device location tracking system for determining the location of the control device relative to at least one reference device, a database for storing location data of spatial targets for the target devices, a processor for determining if the control device is pointed at the spatial target based on the location data of the spatial target and the orientation, direction, and location of the control device, and an input mechanism for receiving control instructions for controlling the targeted device.
