A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

They are also IR controlled. A lot of them have a little window on the front of the unit, and an array of transmitters in the ceiling.

Probably different models for different sets. The set I work with are purely wifi. They have a light on them to blink is the only extra thing they do

IR on them does sound stupid though, in a store environment that can be blocked rather easily
