T-Shaped Remote Controls

The Sightless Remote Control by Gisung Han is Hard to Misplace

The conceptual Sightless Remote Control has been designed by Gisung Han as a modernized version of the living room device that will greatly enhance the overall user experience. The remote control is characterized by its T-shaped construction that is inherently easy to hold onto and orient in the hand without looking. The remote control is also cleverly not able to slip into the couch cushions and become lost to eliminate the occurrence of it becoming lost between uses.

The conceptual Sightless Remote Control is also free from conventional circular and oval-shaped buttons in favor of wedge-shaped ones that rise prominently out of the top section. This would also support sight-free use, which could further increase the accessible nature of the remote control.

Tactile Wedge-shaped Buttons
