Touchjet Wave Turns your TV into a Full-featured Tablet

Published by Sierra Monica P. on August 18, 2015 under Home

Any 20”-80” flat screen TV with high definition and an HDMI port you have can be used as a big tablet if you attach Touchjet Wave at the top. The intelligent TV accessory enables touchscreen functionality right on your TV, but also lets you download Android or iPhone apps, watch movies, play games, listen to music, read news, browse photos, and share stuff on social sites.

Practically, with Wave, you can do with your TV everything you can do with a tablet, just that you have a bigger display and you can control everything using your finger, a stylus and a remote control app installed on your Android or Apple smartphone.

The way Wave can do all these things is based on the infrared technology used to to track finger movements and taps, while the data is sent to the light processing unit to be translated into gestures and taps understood by Android.

To setup Wave you have to clip it to the TV, plug it into an HDMI port and tap a few dots for calibration. The device connects to WiFi and you can access the Internet at home or at the office, whenever you need to browse something or start a presentation.
