Gesture-Operated Remotes

The BalanceLine TV Clicker Reacts to Taps, Strokes and Reorienting

For several years now, it's seemed as though television remote controls were getting more and more complicated. Increasing numbers of buttons necessitated the color coding and the diversification of shapes and symbols; it has really left many users craving something more like the Zone-K BalanceLine Remote.

This channel changer has just one button and its functions include 'power' and 'mute.' The tip of the device offers a lengthy sensitive area over which you can pass your thumb or fingertip for scrolling. It's this part that allows you to browse through various options on your screen, such as programs and stations. A second and smaller sensitive area of the Loewe BalanceLine Remote lets you adjust volume. Reorienting the gadget enables you to communicate additional commands.
