Einführung von Omni-Fernbedienungen “ewig” Fernbedienung

Omni-Fernbedienungen, ein weltweit führender Anbieter von Haussteuerungslösungen, today announced a new remote that requires no battery replacement or recharging over its entire product lifetime. The solar-powered Model P has the potential to significantly reduce the use and disposal of alkaline batteries. Leveraging Omni’ low-power hardware platform, Model P supports standard voice commands as well as Bluetooth and infrared keypresses, while drawing virtually no current while in standby. Coupled with advancements in solar harvesting, Model P can essentially operate in perpetuity, gegeben 8 hours of daily indoor lighting. Even in complete darkness, its built-in power reserves can sustain 4 months of regular use.

Designed without a battery compartment or charging port, Model P measures just 10 mm dick. Its solar panel is seamlessly designed into the rest of the remote, defying the utilitarian look of conventional solar devices. Currently offered to leading pay TV operators, it is compatible with Android TV, RDK and other popular set-top box systems.

“The humble remote control is often overlooked, but is one of the few truly ubiquitous devices,” said Jean-Paul Abrams, President of Global Sales, Omni-Fernbedienungen. “As an industry leader, we hope that Model P points to a greener way for the millions of remotes made each year.”

Model P is part of the “Omni Greenovation” Programm, a broad-ranging sustainability effort that includes implementing ink-free manufacturing processes, using recycled and ocean-bound plastics, and adopting paper-based packaging.
