One look at these remote-controlled revelations will doubtlessly prove that, in the world of tomorrow, you won't have to lift a finger to move any gadget. Whether you're trying to suppress a squad of enemy insurgents or simply have breakfast delivered to your bed mid-morning, just pick up that remote.
The idea of wireless manipulation is not necessarily new, but until recently it's been considered child's play and unfit to solve genuine consumer demands. Fortunately, wireless cards have shrunk in size and cost, leaving inventors to explore the concept until, eventually, these 46 remote-controlled revelations surfaced. Defusing bombs, entertaining pets and even collecting energy will become decidedly easier once people no longer have to be physically present. Kick back and enjoy the new world of remotes: a world where things come to you, instead of the other way around.
