In many audio visual
applications, it may be necessary to place a media center device such as a
satellite receiver, video player or set-top box in a centralized
location that is not in the line-of-sight of the display. Because of this,
remote controls for those devices will not work. To correct this, the
IR-EYE receives the signals from the remote control and sends them to the
media center device by way of an infrared extender.
