(Radio Frequency remote control) A handheld, wireless device used to operate audio, video and other electronic equipment using radio frequency (RF) transmission. Unlike the common infrared (IR) remotes, RF remotes do not have to be aimed at the equipment.In electronics, a remote control (also known as a remote or clicker) is an electronic device used to operate another device from a distance, usually wirelessly. In consumer electronics, a remote control can be used to operate devices such as a television set, DVD player or other home appliance.RF, also known as “Radio Frequency”, and IR, which stands for “Infrared” are two kinds of energy used in remote controls to communicate commands. RF uses radio waves and IR is a kind of light that can't be seen with the naked eye.
