Every time users push a button on the device, they generate a small amount of electricity through vibration. NEC says this is enough to turn on or off a TV (or any other electric appliance), switch channels or control the volume.<\/p>\n<p>The power generation unit in the prototype is made by a company called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.soundpower.co.jp\/index.html\">Soundpower<\/a> [JP]. NEC teamed up with the Yokohama-based venture back in December 2006 to develop the battery-less remote control. Both companies plan to start marketing it to makers of home electric appliances next year.<\/p>\n<p>Via <a href=\"http:\/\/asiajin.com\/blog\/2009\/11\/18\/self-generating-battery-less-remote-control-for-tv\/\">Asiajin<\/a> [ENG]<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/DJLN4HRtgc_wJkjky1i5abMLn3Q\/0\/da\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/DJLN4HRtgc_wJkjky1i5abMLn3Q\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br\/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/DJLN4HRtgc_wJkjky1i5abMLn3Q\/1\/da\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/DJLN4HRtgc_wJkjky1i5abMLn3Q\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p><div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=nSPWIXD85Bc:J8gZOiLNPmQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=nSPWIXD85Bc:J8gZOiLNPmQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=nSPWIXD85Bc:J8gZOiLNPmQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=nSPWIXD85Bc:J8gZOiLNPmQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=nSPWIXD85Bc:J8gZOiLNPmQ:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEC Electronics, an NEC subsidiary, has announced the development of a remote control [JP] that works without using batteries.
