Abstract

A method for controlling a remote control device includes capturing with a biometric device biometric data associated with a user, determining with processor whether the user is authorized to interact with the smart device, in response to the biometric data, determining with the processor user data, in response to the user being authorized to interact with the smart device, receiving with a short-range transceiver an authentication request from a reader device associated with a remote control device, outputting with the short-range transceiver a session token in response to the authentication request and to the user data, thereafter determining with a physical sensor physical perturbations in response to physical actions of the user, determining with the processor a requested action for the remote control device, in response to the user data and the physical perturbations, and outputting with the short-range transceiver the requested action to the reader device.
