ApriPoko

And this is how it begins… the robots supremacy! This robot has been created by Toshiba. It can’t make you dinner, but it has the functions of an universal remote control. ApriPoko features a voice-operated system and detects IR beams.

After a chit-chat, ApriPoko will learn how to operate various remote controls. It stores your commands and then it just does the job for you. ApriPoko would be a perfect addition for elders or for handicapped persons. No price details were revealed.

Pure Gold Remote Control by Lantic Systems

Pure Gold RC1 Remote Control by Lantic Systems

Did the remote control ever made it to the “most loved gadgets” category in your heart? Probably not because other than allowing you to be lazy and change the channel from a few meters away there’s nothing unusual with it. Things are about to end because a company called Lantic Systems released Gold RC1 a pure gold remote control.

Specialized in high end products, they did a great job this time. With yacht owners in mind they Lantic Systems will sell this crazy golden gadget for $55,000 while a normal gilded remote control sells for somewhere around $1,000.

If the price is nothing I really think you should try it because lots of friends will be amazed. Make sure you don’t break it or something, otherwise you’d lose a lot of money.
