Abstract
A device for converting digital images taken along a predefined movement pattern into a control signal. The device comprises an image input device having a connection to a image sensor. The image input device is adapted to receive the digital images captured during the displacement of the image sensor and determine whether motion measured therein corresponds to any prestored movement pattern, that is to say to a predefined gesture. The device further comprises a movement pattern converter to convert the recognized pattern into the control signal.
