4. A TV REMOTE CONTROL AND EXPERIMENTS
We developed Rebo, as a TV remote control based on the proposed remote control to implement all
of the three advantages in the previous section. In addition, we also designed feedback behavior of the TV
and constructed an advanced TV system. The advanced TV system is a simulated TV in which a movie
player plays recorded TV programs on a PC monitor in multiple channels like a real TV. Also, traditional
remote controls can communicate the advanced TV system, and we can implement and test various action
sloping methods on the advanced TV system. Unfortunately implementation of action sloping and partial
execution on a real TV is hard, thus we need to use an advanced TV system.
Functions we implemented in the advanced TV system are channel select, sound volume change, and
power on/off. In this section, manipulation methods of Rebo and feedback behavior of the TV are described.
