Want to transform your iPhone or iPod touch and make them even more versatile by also functioning as universal remote controls for TVs, DVRs, and game systems?
Waltham-based ThinkFlood claims it can help the owners of such devices to do just that. The company said today that it is releasing a public beta version of a system called RedEye that it says will make the iPhone even more useful.
"Consisting of a small, production-grade hardware device and a free downloadable software beta application, the RedEye system transforms an iPhone or iPod touch into a universal remote control, allowing consumers to control an almost unlimited number of home entertainment devices," ThinkFlood said in a press release.
The press release added: "Once downloaded, the iPhone/iPod is able to communicate with the RedEye hub using Wi-Fi, meaning no line of sight is required and control is possible from any room in the house. RedEye receives the iPhone�s commands and sends out infrared signals to control the designated devices."
The iPhone is made by Apple Inc. The photo that appears with this post is a company handout.
