World’s Creepiest Remote

June 23rd, 2009 by Lee

Geekologie brings us the story that Panasonic has developed a gel-based remote that remains “limp” when not in use, but “stiffens” when “turned on”.

Evidently, sensors on the inside of the remote detect human touch and cause the remote to “come” to life. When not in use, the remote just lays there, emanating a “pulsing” light.

Alright… Even I can’t take any more bad puns. Why on earth would you invent this Panasonic? For what reason must this technology exist? Curse you!
