Under the penetration of smartphones equipped with a variety of features grows globally, the efficient using of a variety of functions of smartphones has been increased. In accordance with this trend, a lot of researches on the remote control method using the smart phone for consumer products in home networks. Input methods of the current smpartphoes are typically button-based inputs through touching. The button input methods are inconvenient for people who are not familiar touch. Therefore, the researches on the different input schemes to replace the touch methods are required. In this paper, we propose a gesture based input method to replace the touch-sensitive input that of the existing smartphone applications, and a way to apply it to home networks. The proposed method uses three-axis acceleration sensor which is built into smatphones, and it also defines six kinds of gestures patterns that may be applied to home network systems by measuring the recognition rates.
