Abstract:
A software application and system that enables point-and-click interaction with a TV screen. The application determines geocode positioning information for a handheld device, and uses that data to create a virtual pointer for a television display or interactive device. Some embodiments utilize motion sensing and touchscreen input for gesture recognition interacting with video content or interactive device. Motion sensing can be coupled with positioning or localization techniques the user to calibrate the location of the interactive devices and the user location to establish and maintain virtual pointer connection relationships. The system may utilize wireless network infrastructure and cloud-based calculation and storage of position and orientation values to enable the handheld device in the TV viewing area to replace or surpass the functionality of the traditional TV remote control, and also interface directly with visual feedback on the TV screen.

Claim (Index 39):
A system for facilitating remote interaction with interactive devices in a physical space, comprising:\n a first set of computer-readable instructions that configure a handheld wireless device to determine location and orientation information about the handheld wireless device based on sensors onboard the handheld wireless device and transmit the location information and at least one user input across a wireless network, wherein the location information is derived by the handheld wireless device from a distance measurement between the handheld wireless device and at least one fixed-location terrestrial wireless networking device; a server, remote from the handheld wireless device and in communication with the handheld wireless device, configured to execute:\n a second set of computer-readable instructions that configure the server to receive the location information and to approximate the orientation of the handheld wireless device relative to a physical space, including in relation to at least one interactive device, which is separate from the handheld wireless device, based on the location information received from the handheld device and a model of the environment around the handheld wireless device and \n a third set of computer-readable instructions that configure the server to facilitate network control of the at least one interactive device in the physical environment in response to the location information and the at least one user input as the handheld device is moved past the separate interactive device locations in physical space, using a model of the physical space; and \n a fourth set of computer-readable instructions that configure a handheld wireless device to duplicate on a display of the handheld device at least one a portion of information displayed on the separate controlled interactive device.
