No. 6,784,805), titled “State-Based Remote Control System,” which claims the benefit of expired U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/189,487, filed Mar. 15, 2000, titled “System, Method and Apparatus for an Internet Enabled User Interaction Device” and expired U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/253,727 filed Nov. 29, 2000, titled “State- Based Remote Control,” each of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
The present invention is utilized to control and operate various external electronic devices including but not limited to televisions, stereos, receivers, VCRs, DVD players. CD players, amplifiers, equalizers, tape players, cable units, satellite dish receivers, lighting, window shades and other electronic devices. Almost any number of external electronic devices may be controlled by the present invention as will be discussed in further detail.
The communications device 108 may be comprised of any well-known communication system that allows communications with external electronic devices. The communications device 108 may provide for various types of communication such as but not limited to via infrared (IR), wireless (e.g. BLUETOOTH), unidirectional, bidirectional, radio frequency (RF), visible light, ultrasonic and various other means for communicating with external electronic devices.

In the event that the simulated and physical devices are not in the same state, the user is able to initiate the synchronization procedure. During this procedure, the aim is to resyncrhonize the simulated and physical devices as quickly as possible. There are a number of ways to perform this procedure:
2) Simulated Device State Changes
It is noted that the user may be prompted through the synchronization procedure after performing an operation with the state-based remote control. For example, after selecting ‘Watch Television’, the user may be prompted with ‘Is everything working correctly?’, and if the user responds ‘No’, they would then go through a synchronization procedure similar to the following: ‘Is the television switched on?’, ‘Can you see a picture on the television?’, ‘Is the receiver switched on?’, ‘Can you hear sound from the receiver?’.
