Remote Control Extender

Introducing a New Idea in Remote Controls
In todays home, the trend for flat panel televisions continues to grow. The market for Plasma TV screens grew 232% compared to last year, while the market for LCD TV screens grew 214% compared to last year. In these digital homes, well over two-thirds of flat panel television owners are choosing to store their audio-visual equipment in locations that are hidden from view, such as a closet or A/V Center. Remote Extender is a new product concept designed for todays digital lifestyle households, where the traditional universal remote control can be extended to offer the convenience of controlling all the audio-visual equipment in the home, even when it is hidden from view. These target households have disposable incomes and a propensity for advanced services, such as HD and DVR, and subscriptions to premium channel offerings.

Transmitter converts any IR command into an RF signal that can travel through walls and doors to a receiver located up to 100 feet away. RF signal is received by a small AC-powered receiver, which is placed inside the AV equipment cabinet. RF to IR receiver converts RF signal back to IR and transmits to AV equipment, all in a fraction of a second!
