Abstract
This invention describes a universal pointing and interacting (UPI) device that is configured to interact with a handheld device such as a smartphone or a tablet. The interaction means activating the screen of the handheld device based on the relative spatial relations between the UPI device and the handheld device. In addition, the interaction means activating other elements, such as audio playing, vibration motors and others, on either the handheld device or the UPI device. The relative spatial relations between the UPI device and the handheld device are estimated using a camera, an accelerometer, a magnetometer or a LIDAR on the handheld device, as well as by using a camera, an accelerometer, a magnetometer or a LIDAR on the UPI device.
