Introduction
The Control Omni is an advanced remote control system with a built-in mobile phone,
adapted for people with disabilities. The Control Omni is controlled by direct touch on screen
but it is also possible to connect external switches to use a scanning function.
The Control Omni is programmable, which means that it can
“learn” IR codes from other
remote control units such as those for a TV, DVD or stereo system. Control Omni is equipped
with a built-in radio transmitter for environmental control. The screen is dynamic, which
means information displayed can be arranged according to the
users’ needs and
preferences.
