Abstract
An integrated remote control device and method using multi-modal inputs are provided. The integrated remote control device may include an input module that receives inputs of at least two modalities from a user, a first modality recognition module that recognizes and interprets an input of a first modality received from the input module, a second modality recognition module that recognizes and interprets an input of a second modality received from the input module, a command database (DB) that stores commands, a control module that interprets a user command by synthesizing information about the inputs interpreted by the first and second modality recognition modules, and extracts a control command that corresponds to the interpreted user command from the command DB, and an output module that outputs the control command extracted by the control module.
