Battery module transceiver for extending the range of an infrared remote controller

摘要

A battery module transceiver for extending the operational range of an infrared remote controller is disclosed. The battery module comprises: a battery power supply received within the battery module transceiver which provides power for the infrared remote controller and a transceiver received within the battery module transceiver. The transceiver has a detector for detecting a radio frequency pulse accompanying a first infrared signal generated from the infrared remote controller and a transmitter for generating a radio frequency signal in response to the radio frequency pulse.
