RTI SURFiR Companion Remote for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch
The SURFiR companion remote represents a new concept in control, providing an affordable solution to incorporate tactile control with a smartphone or tablet device. The remote allows users to incorporate the Apple devices that they already own as the main graphical interface for their control system, while adding the convenience of tactile control with hard buttons, and eliminating the numerous screen swipes needed for control tasks that require frequent interaction, such as watching TV.
The SURFiR remote enables users to enjoy many of the other benefits of their Apple device, such as checking emails, reading news feeds, accessing social media apps, etc., while still having convenient and intuitive control of their electronic system.
Designed to work with any of RTI’s powerful XP control processors, the controller requires minimal programming for installers, lowering overall installation costs and making it simple to integrate into any system. In addition to Apple devices, the SURFiR will offer support for Android-based smartphones and tablets in the future.

“Many consumers love using their iPad or iPhone to access their electronics system. However, using such devices presents a few limitations, including the lack of tactile control and the numerous screen swipes it can take to perform basic functions,” says RTI vice president of sales and marketing Pete Baker.
“We are excited to introduce the SURFiR companion remote at this year’s CEDIA Expo, to bring a complete, powerful control experience to Apple enthusiasts.”
The SURFiR will be available at the end of 2011 and will be on display at CEDIA Expo 2011 in booth 3024.
