That Sony jog dial was amazing. Most likely very costly.
Have you seen the Savant remotes? Very nicely done with a combo of touch screen and tactile buttons. But it only works with their propriety smart home system which is very expensive
That would be a great idea! Hijack the process so people use your remote (and brand) as the main touchpoint for their experience. Instead of getting people to use your remote to program another master, absorb the functions of the other remotes and make yours the master. I'm thinking there must be other use case scenarios like this but can't come up with anything at the moment.....yo wrote:At the last company I worked for I pitched to do a universal remote. Bose had done one that ships with many of their products, and I thought it would be a good thing to be the main remote that people use and give them a better experience. The effort didn't move forward, but I would have loved to have completed that!
Apple TV UI I would say is pretty close to perfect. You can do everything intuitively, with one hand, in the dark, half asleep. I don't think I've ever had an issue figuring anything out. It's pretty simple, but yet I can watch anything I want anytime I want so I'd say pretty powerful. Mine is an old version though so maybe I'm missing some features and functions. I only use Netflix and iTunes on it. Youtube the odd time. All the other apps on it are useless and wish I could delete.
My only beef is the forced TVos search function.rkuchinsky wrote: ↑November 19th, 2018, 11:28 am
