In this study, a multi-purpose remote controller based on Bluetooth mobile
phone (MRCBMP) is proposed to provide users for a convenient control
interface.
The IR, RF and Bluetooth modules are integrated into the microcontroller
module cooperated with Bluetooth mobile phone by Bluetooth module.
By MRCBMP, users can control IR, RF and Bluetooth controlled objects
without the numerous conventional remote controllers.

With the more household appliances entering everyone’s home today, the
more and more remote controls are created to be accompanied with
increasing variety and brands of appliances.
The numerous remote controls make the operations inconvenient, because
user needs to switch from one control to another when user wants to control
different appliance.
In the commercial market, the called universal controllers are promoted to
reduce increased the amount of remote controllers.

At present, traditional mechanical keys are still applied for the entrance
mechanism. For the advanced security reason, inputting the passwords or
using induction technologies are mainstream applications.
For example, the RFID is an induction application. The RFID reader induces
the tag and read the data from tag to control entrance mechanism.
Sometimes, users may forget to bring the RFID card with themselves or
passwords, so they are kept out of the door.

In this work, three wireless control interfaces hardware including IR, RF and
Bluetooth are integrated in a portable mobile phone.
We can input the control data of the different brands and types into the
mobile phone. The data will be stored in the memory of mobile phone.
The users can control different controlled objects without changing the
controller hardware in the mobile phone.
Compared with traditional universal controllers, this work provides more
flexible extension.

This study has proposed a multi-purpose remote controller based on
Bluetooth mobile phone.
IR, RF and Bluetooth wireless communication technologies ate integrated
into MRCBMP design to provide users for a convenient control interface.
By MRCBMP, users are able to control IR, RF and Bluetooth controlled
objects without numerous conventional remote controllers.

The suggestions of future works are given as follows. We will integrate
microcontroller module, Bluetooth module, IR module, RF module and
Bluetooth module into a chip to reduce the hardware size of MRCBMP.
Besides reducing size, we will set up a controlled object database with
common household appliances and daily applications.
If users buy a new household appliance, they can download its control
data from internet to change their controlled object in the HWCP without
any additional cost.
