TAKE AWAY MY TOUCH SCREEN REMOTE CONTROL – NOT A CHANCE !!!

How could I watch TV or turn on the DVD player or the PVR ??  I’d have to GET UP and WALK to those components and MANUALLY turn them on !!

The above description would be the normal reaction of more than 95% of the population – don’t you agree? Those programmable ‘bricks’ have become such a necessity in our daily lives that we probably wouldn’t be able to function properly without them. In addition to automatically turning on our electronic components – they are an adult ‘soother’ that, today, by using a touch screen remote control, can turn on lights, start your coffee machine, and much, much more.

A short review regarding touchscreen remote controls. They were used by the military during World War 1 but, it wasn’t until about 15 years later that they were made available to the masses. The initial offerings were television remotes that were attached to the television set itself by a cable. This made them somewhat inconvenient but decreased the occurrence of constantly misplacing them. There were many improvements during the following 50 years but, around 2000, their abilities and ease of usage had increased to such a point that, overnight, they became the newest member of the modern family.

Initially, the remote control was a rectangular block of plastic that contained a series of buttons. As the available functions of the remote increased – so did the number of buttons. It became a veritable nightmare to try and manipulate the multiple components of a modern stereo/TV sound system by memorizing the locations of which button…did what?

This created the invention of the Liquid Crystal display [LCD] screen which was able to illustrate which function you had requested from your remote. The early design of the touchscreen was tiny and really only served as a ‘dress-up’ feature of the remote itself.  This process was still somewhat confusing…so, it wasn’t long before the buttons began to disappear, the remotes became jumbo in size for a while and,

the screen became larger until  you now had a backlit screen which, by touching it in a specific spot while reading illustrated text, enabled you to complete the required function without much thought or hesitation. This process continued until the buttons virtually disappeared and we were left with the touch screen remote control that we know and are, today, dependent upon to such a great extent.

Today’s ‘remote’ control is universal and , based on your budget, can control your audio functions as well as ALL of your sound system components [usually up to 15 varied items] and, in addition, your home lighting, small appliances and [even] the opening and closing of your garage door -  all done while you sit in your chair in front of your TV.  And…someone wants to take this away from me….I GUESS NOT !!
