The invention provides a remote control system and a remote control which actively controls the communication and dis-communication of a plurality of sensors arranged in the remote control so as to save power for the remote control. According to the invention, the remote control comprises a microphone sensor (191) to detect a user's sounds and a movement sensor (192) to detect the movement of the sensor. A switching unit is provided to realize the switching between the sensors (191,192) to have them connected and disconnected; a communication unit (193) is used to perform wireless communications between STB (200). A timing unit (195) is used to time the switching state from being connected to being disconnected. A switching unit (194) is used to switch the connection and disconnection of the sensors.
