Understanding infrared technology

Infrared (IR) technology allows devices to communicate without wires. Using the beam of infrared light from an electronic display, such as your PDA, Nevo can connect with any office, entertainment or home automation equipment that supports infrared technology, giving you the freedom to wirelessly access and control your devices.
