Tech News: Remote Control for Lazy People

[Garritan]

Too Lazy to Use the Remote?

Try the InVoca Voice Activated Remote Control (http://www.crowdedbrain.co.uk/2005/11/invoca_voice_ac.html)

"This is a great bit of kit for lazy people wanting the ultimate in remote control technology. The InVoca is a voice activated remote control which allows you to speak and then watch as your voice changes channels, lower Volume, record programs etc. This baby can hold up to four different voices at once. Just imagine now when you shout at the TV when a duff program is on you will actualy get some action. Looks like a US only product and costs $50."

Too lazy to press buttons? What if you get too lazy to talk?

Maybe we could look into programming one of these for GPO.

Nice, but what I need is a remote that screams, "I'M OVER HERE!" or "THAT LOUSY KID STUCK ME UNDER THE CUSSIONS!" or best yet, "HEY! WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE YOU GRAB ME YA PIG!” Is that asking for too much?:(

You need to use your secret technology to create a brain-to-remote linkage... just think about the channel changing and *poof* it changes!

In my family I always hid the remote somewhere so that my siblings would not get control of the television before me :)

Our team of programmers are developing such a device...:D
