SUSTAINABILITY SOLUTIONS
- Next-Generation Sustainable Remote – battery-free remote-control prototype equipped with High-Density PV panel for ambient light harvesting, to ensure a more energy-efficiency platform that re-charges itself using ambient light from its surroundings. There are no batteries to be replaced providing maximum user convenience, with no battery disposal creating a more sustainable future.
- Next-Generation Sustainable Materials – battery-free remotes that are silicone-free – bringing greater sustainable value to the product solution. Instead of silicone rubber, which is difficult to recycle, the remote-control keypads use TPE – Thermoplastic Elastomer material which is designed for efficient recycling and reuse.
- Groundbreaking Energy Savings – knowledgeable technical staff will be on hand to demonstrate the energy harvesting capabilities of our technology, highlighting the clear advantage our ground-breaking technologies offer in harvesting energy from ambient light and using it to power the low-energy silicon platform designed into our remote controls.
- Award-Nominated Remote Control: UEI Eterna XLR Bluetooth voice remote has been shortlisted for a CSI Award at IBC in the ‘Best sustainability project or initiative’ category. The UEI Eterna XLR uses a High-Density PV panel for energy harvesting from ambient light, is powered by an Xtreme Low-Power Bluetooth controller, and is made with 95% post-consumer-recycled plastics for sustainability.
