Can anyone postulate (shed some light) as to how the following device might work?
http://www.nextgen.us/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=REMOTEEXTENDERGENIUS
It's essentially an RF transmitter module which fits in place of one of the AA battery receptacles. How does it pick up (detect) the actual coded IR signals from the handset. Does the IR circuitry emit its own "weak" RF signal which is then further amplified and sent via this module?
Quite an interesting bit of kit.
Thanks,
Andreas
