Abstract:
To provide duplicate functions to one operation key and to quicken the reaction speed.
In addition to a conventional depression operation of an operation key, an operation by a wrist motion of a hand grasping the remote commander is added. That is, the user grasps the remote commander main body by a hand and turns the wrist or shakes the wrist vertically. The vibration is sensed by an acceleration sensor and an angular velocity sensor, and its control signal is outputted. Thus, the number of operation keys 6 is reduced to make the remote controller small in size and light in weight and the reaction speed is quickened to enhance the operability.
