Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016066778A1] The invention relates to the field of remote controlling electronic devices. In particular, the invention relates to remote controls which are designed to detect biometric information in order to identify an individual. The apparatus for remotely controlling or remotely operating devices, which have a receiver for receiving the commands sent by the apparatus, has a circumferential frame (3) and a front and a back side (1, 2), and is designed, in conjunction with an authentication or identification of a user, to detect and process, at least in part, biometric data or information about characteristic features of the user's hand lines and/or hand vein structure. For this purpose, the apparatus comprises at least one biometric sensor (6) for detecting biometric feature data of a palm, at least one light source for illuminating or lighting the palm to be detected, at least one pressure or contact sensor, at least one processor, and a communication interface for outputting and for receiving commands or data, wherein an activation of the biometric sensor (6) is functionally coupled to an activation of the at least one pressure or contact sensor, which is arranged in the circumferential frame (3) and/or in the back side (2).
