Abstract:
A wearable reminder or gesture control device is provided using two different types of gestures obtained from two different types of sensors. The device outputs audio to a user but does not have a display, a keypad, or speech recognition software, therewith significantly reducing size, storage requirements and power consumption. Hence the device is suitable for use by the blind, persons with a speech impediment, visually impaired persons, and others who are unable to read small fonts.

Claim (Index 7):
A system wearable by a user, comprising:\n (a) a gesture control device comprising a first gesture sensor for contactless detecting a first type of gestures, the first gesture sensor recognizing gestures made by the user's hand, wherein the control device does not have a keypad, display or speech recognition, and wherein the control device does not have inertial sensors; (b) an external and separate sensing device with a second gesture sensor for detecting a second type of gestures, and the gesture control device wirelessly receiving data from the external and separate sensing device and recognizing a second type of gestures made by the user using the external and separate sensing device; (c) a gesture recognition module executable by a processor on the gesture control device, the gesture recognition module receiving the sensor data for the first and second types of gestures, wherein the gesture recognition module is programmed to recognize gestures based on letters, numbers and symbols; and (d) a state machine executable by a processor on the gesture control device programmed to receive the recognized gestures from the gesture recognition module, wherein the state machine changes state based on the recognized gesture, and wherein the state machine depending on its current state outputs the recognized gesture.
