Abstract

A device (DISP) for gestural control of a system (SYST) includes a grippable mobile control element (TC), a movement sensor assembly (EC) for measuring movements of the mobile control element (TC), and a processing circuit (DET) for detection the rotation or translation of the mobile control element in relation to an axis that is substantially invariant over a time window. The device (DISP) also includes a circuit (REG) for adjusting the value of at least one parameter of the system, and a circuit (CMD) for controlling activation/deactivation of the adjustment upon a detection by the detection circuit (DET) of a rotation and/or translation of the mobile control element in relation to an axis that is substantially invariant over a time window.
