Just like a regular USB mouse or keyboard.
The full set of features includes:
1. 3D Air Mouse:
The iWavit hardware includes our patented optical motion-sensing module that can turn your iPhone into a Direct-Pointing 3D Mouse. You get precise cursor control: "Where you point the iPhone is where the cursor appears on the screen!". There is no drift over time and no need ever re-center or recalibrate the cursor as is the case with gyro-based air mice. Now you can use your Remote to do more than just navigate arrow keys up/down/left/right. With Direct-Pointing you can select and run practically any programs on your PC. While in Windows Media Center, you can quickly and easily point-and-click your way through the menus, program guides, and video and music selections.
2. RF Remote:
Turn your iPhone into an RF remote with a range of >300 ft. You get single-button instant-navigation to the Video library, Music Library, DVD Library, Picture Library and Recorded TV library. Furthermore, you will be able to select specific channels, control the volume, and adjust playback speed without requiring any pointing.
3. RF Microphone:
The iWavit has a built-in wireless microphone. With this you can talk to friends on Skype on the PC, or you can use the voice-recognition capability built into Windows 7 PCs to issue voice commands, such as "Open Internet Explorer" or "Close that!".
4. RF Keyboard:
On Screen 3 you can turn your iPhone turns into an RF USB Keyboard. It works just like a real keyboard would. It even works in the PC login screen. Use the keyboard, for example, to search for specific shows inside of Media Center or when browsing the web on your PC from the comfort of your couch.
5. IR Learning:
This app has 8 fully customizable IR buttons that can be programmed to control almost any IR device. For example, you can set them up to control your TV volume, power, or source. In fact, the iWavit USB dongle doubles as an IR Repeater, meaning that you can control IR devices from nearly anywhere in your house, and even inside cabinets.
6. Multiple USB dongle support:
You can now select to control up to 16 different USB dongles within RF range. Use this powerful capability to control more computers or IR devices located in different rooms of your house or inside cabinets.
In short, it is time to GET RID OF YOUR LIVING ROOM CLUTTER and start virtualizing all your Remotes and PC input devices!
