Solar power is also a plus.
Maybe the most advanced product at CES 2022 is this remote control. Samsung announced the new Eco Remote, a futuristic remote control that works with radio waves emitted by routers and sunlight.
Personally, I often have trouble replacing the batteries in the remote control, and I don't remember having any batteries left in the remote control for the TV or set-top box at the hotel where I moved or stayed. A smart remote control like this should solve such an irritating situation.
In 2021, Samsung announced the "Eco Remote (conventional model)" compatible with solar power generation. With this year's Eco Remote, in addition to solar power generation, we added a function that captures the weak radio waves emitted by the router and charges it, so you can always maintain a fully charged state.
Although the idea of generating power using radio waves from routers has been around for some time, there have been few examples of its use in actual products due to the small amount of power generated. However, with a remote control, even that small amount of power generation is enough. The new Eco Remote is also eco-friendly thanks to the use of recycled materials.
The new Eco Remote will ship with all 2022 Samsung TVs. I might buy a Samsung TV just to try this remote control.
