Technology Opportunities

Radio receivers (RRs) are used on a daily basis by both individuals and industries to deliver news, music, advertisements and programs. They are easy to operate and present a standard interface in terms of user-controlled functionality (channel and volume control, mute function etc). This invention deals with extending the functionality of RRs. The idea is to update existing devices to produce a new set of capabilities. Application programs are added to the device, which detect either eye, hand, head movements, touch of radio screen or surface, voice command, whistle or other forms of airflow.
