Programmable Remote Control

The Kameleon is a programmable remote control. Home entertainment devices are finding their way into our living rooms at a rate like never before. The average U.S. household today has 13 consumer electronic devices and growing, due to the vast popularity of Personal Video Recorders (PVR), DVD, Home-theater-in-a-Box, Satellite receivers, and Digital Television. Home entertainment devices are becoming increasingly more elaborate, sophisticated, and function-rich. Consequently, traditional universal programmable remote controls have become increasingly more complex and difficult to use in trying to accommodate the many features and options available to the consumer. Kameleon’s programmable remote controls feature unique electro-luminescent display technology (EL) that hides inactive keys until needed, so you can easily enjoy the advanced features of an 8-device universal programmable remote control without any of the added complexity. The programmable remote control design blends both form and function by combining all the functionality of a traditional universal remote with the power of a touch interface display. Its bold look is modern and attractive, highlighting a one-of-a kind ergonomic design that is distinct and high tech.

About Kameleon Programmable Remote Controls From Universal Electronics

Kameleon is a programmable remote control with a revolutionary display technology that utilizes the power of Intelligent Illumination to provide unparalleled ease of use and superior control of the home entertainment environment. The programmable remote control works by intelligently illuminating only active device keys, and hiding inactive functions, to deliver an intuitive and unique graphical control interface.

Designed with UEI technology inside, the Kameleon remote features UEI’s industry-leading connectivity software, for unparalleled brand coverage. Over the past 19 years, UEI has built a comprehensive portfolio of patented consumer ease-of-use features, such as favorite channel scan, upgradeability, learning, and macros, all geared to providing the consumer with the most intuitive processes for customizing the remote to his or her own preferences. With over 204,000 device function codes spanning over 2,300 brands, UEI’s industry-leading database ensures compatibility with virtually any consumer electronics device. And with UEI’s experienced programmable remote control design team, key layouts are optimized to group functions together and create efficient spacing of keys and labels.

Kameleon 6 Hybrid Programmable Remote Control
The Kameleon 6-Hybrid combines Kameleon’s revolutionary programmable remote control display technology that intelligently illuminates and changes its display to adapt to different entertainment environments with the familiar, intuitive buttons of standard remote controls. Complementing the bright blue display and its animated graphics are 33 hard keys that offer consumers quick access to the most frequently used functions such as channel and volume control.

Kameleon 8 RF Programmable Remote Control
The Kameleon 8-RF programmable remote control combines the infrared (IR) transmitter found in most remote controls with the more powerful RF transmitter. While IR signals require line of sight to operate, RF signals have no trouble reaching target devices that are hidden inside cabinets or closets with a Kameleon.

Universal Electronics has also taken the time to listen and respond to customer feedback. Two key features have been added to extend battery life in programmable remote controls. The motion activated display enables the programmable remote control screen to turn on when it senses motion. Users can disable this to make the programmable remote control unit only turn on when a key is pressed. Furthermore, the display timeout control allows the user to select the amount of time that the display stays on. When it comes to adapting, nothing does it quite like a Kameleon. Take a look and see how the Kameleon programmable remote control is outshining the traditional clicker in more ways than one.
