Abstract
A motion recognition system and method for controlling electronic devices are disclosed, in which at least a micro inertial sensor, each being arranged at a specific location of a human body, is used to detect and measure a motion of the body so as to correspondently obtain a plurality of gesture parameters, such as angular velocity and acceleration, etc., and then the detected parameters are analyzed and converted into an input gesture sequence by a specific algorithm to be compared with a predefined motion information sequence so as to enable any of the controlled electronic devices to perform a specific operation according to the result of the comparison. In addition, a momentum can be obtained by performing a calculation upon the detected gestured parameters with respect to time, which can be used for controlling the interaction of the controlled electric devices.
