each piece of household electronics comes with its own remote that floods families with complexity. sony japan wants to cure this problem with the ‘huis’ remote controller that tames the disorder. accompanied by complete customization, the remote will display only the necessary buttons for each household device. through simple gesture screen switching, the ‘huis’ will smoothly work simultaneously with many electronics at once using both infrared and bluetooth connectivity. 

escaping high resolution screens, the sony ’huis’ shows information through an electronic paper display that is constantly on without the use of power. in addition, the remote includes accelerated motion sensing technology to quickly start commands in any room. the shape of the ‘huis’ made from PC-ABS resin complements the user-friendly screen with a flat top panel and an accompanied back plate that is slightly curved for a more comfortable grip. when not in use, the bottom is formed to act as a stand. the sony ‘huis’ remote controller is only available in japan and was made possible through the company’s ‘first flight’ crowd-sourcing platform.
