OPTICAL REMOTE CONTROL INTERFACE SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

The present invention is a method and apparatus for controlling a device (15 5) by a remote controller (110). A receiving unit (122) receives a first signal emitted by the remote controller (110) and converts the received signal into a data stream. A communication medium (130) carries the data stream from the receiving unit. A transmitting unit (140) receives the data stream from the communication medium (130) and converts the received data stream into a seco nd signal compatible with the device (155).
