Tired of Putting AA’s in Your TV Remote? NEC May Have Solved Your Problem

NEC Remote Control - Look Ma, No Batteries

If there’s one thing I hate, it’s buying batteries for things like my TV remote.  NEC to the rescue.

The company has cooked up a prototype remote that operates off of the energy used to push the buttons on the remote itself.  Yet another invention that falls into the “why didn’t I think of that?” category.

Now, if they can do the same for my kid’s toy dinosaurs, it’ll save me a fortune.
