Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0127895A1] A system (101) and method (201, 301) for controlling appliances (102) remotely with a wireless telephone (104). In the system (101), a plurality of appliances (102) are configured for the reception of remote control commands via a wireless link (105) and wireless signal ports (106). The remote control commands are generated in the wireless telephone (104) and transmitted from wireless signal port (103) on the wireless telephone (104) via a wireless link (105). The wireless telephone (104) may also comprise a personal digital assistant or a combination wireless telephone and personal digital assistant. In the method (201), the wireless telephone (104) starts in an idle (state (202). A user then issues an audio command (203), the wireless telephone (104) determines what the corresponding remote control command is (204), and transmits the remote control command to the appliances (205). The wireless telephone (104) then returns to the idle state (206). In the method (301), the wireless telephone may also start in the call state (302). A user then switches to the remote state (303) and issues an audio command (304). The wireless telephone (104) determines what the corresponding remote control command is (305), transmits the remote control command to the appliances (306), and waits for a period of time to determine if another voice command has been issued (307). If another voice command is issued, the wireless telephone (104) determines what the corresponding remote control command is (204) and steps through the following steps as before. If another voice command is not issued, the wireless telephone (104) may switch back to the call state (308).
