Abstract

See full text

A hand-held transceiver (48) remotely controls a device (24) that is electrically coupled to a receiver (44) capable of receiving an electromagnetic transmission (46) and generating a first electrical signal (52) in response thereto. The device is controlled by the first electrical signal received from the receiver. The transceiver includes a body (56) configured to be hand-held by the person and a housing (43) to house a switch (50) that generates a second electrical signal in response to actuation of the switch. A transmitter (49) is also contained in the housing and is electrically connected to the switch for receiving the second electrical signal. In response thereto, the transmitter generates an electromagnetic transmission for receipt by the receiver (44) to in turn control the device. A weight (62) is couplable to the body for weighting the transceiver. Upper body exercise can be achieved by swinging or otherwise moving the transceiver in one hand, while at the same time remotely controlling the operation of the device.
