Abstract:
An electronic control apparatus including motion sensors is integrated in a portable electronic device to responsively control a media content stored in the portable electronic device, in response to motion sensor signals to flip, zoom, displace images/pages of the media content displayed on a display field of a display thereof. Accordingly, a responsive control method includes the steps of: presetting a first threshold angle; sensing an first rotation angle of the portable electronic device to send out a first rotation sensing signal as a rotation of a yaw, pitch or roll of a portable electronic device detected by a sensing module including motion sensors; and receiving the first rotation sensing signal to calculate and determine whether the first rotation angle is greater than the first threshold angle to responsively control a media content stored in an electronic control apparatus be flipped, zoomed or displaced when the first rotation angle is greater than the first threshold angle.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a wireless inertial input device of low power consumption. The wireless inertial input device uses an inertial sensing cell, being arranged therein, to generate a sensing signal to be received and processed by a processor for enabling the processor to generate a response signal to be applied by an electric device, whereas the inertial sensing cell is communicating with the processor wirelessly as the processor is not physically connected to the inertial sensing cell and is electrically connected to the electric device. By separating the high power consuming processor from the wireless inertial input device as the sensing signal generated by the inertial sensing cell arranged inside the wireless inertial input device is transmitted wirelessly to the processor to be processed, the power consumption of the wireless inertial input device is reduced and thus the duration of batteries used thereby can be increased.

Piloting commands and actions are performed using the handheld device, which includes a motion sensor module, with gyro-sensor and g-sensor for controlling roll, yaw and pitch of flying object under relative or absolute coordinate system. The gyro-sensor controls both heading and rotation of flying object in place around its yaw by rotating handheld device around its yaw axis; g-sensor controls pitch and roll by rotating handheld device around its pitch axis and roll axes. Upon determining free falling of flying object, throttle is thereby adjusted so as to land it safely. Flying object further has a camera, and video images are transferred wireless to be displayed on touch screen, and image zoom-in and zoom-out are provided via multi-touch of touch screen. RF and IR capability is included for wireless communication.
