/> “Consumption of web-based, digital content through the TV is growing rapidly and a heightened level of interaction is necessitated by the sophisticated media experiences offered by today’s IPTV services. Remote controls need to adapt to these improvements and offer new ways of interaction,” said Sam Guilaumé, CEO of Movea. “Partnering with Sunrex, one of the world’s leading ODM’s, will enable us to deliver innovative IPTV products like the SmartMotion Air Mini Keyboard remote and SmartMotion Air Mouse.

The SmartMotion Air Mini Keyboard includes a full four-row QWERTY keypad in a Smartphone sized form factor, and uses 2.4GHz RF technology for reliable, long range data communications that don’t suffer from the line-of-site restrictions of old fashioned infrared (IR) remotes. The SmartMotion Air Mouse makes enjoying a rich digital entertainment experience as simple and intuitive to navigate on a TV as it is on a computer; controlling movies, music, games and applications with a flick of the wrist.

“Building on Movea’s MotionIC platform will help Sunrex reduce time-to-market for next generation, motion-controlled accessories,” said Jason Hsu, General Manager at Sunrex Technology. “Combined with our expertise in vertical integration and high quality, high volume production, Movea’s MotionIC will enable OEM’s and Service Providers to satisfy a growing demand for Motion Intelligence™ in the IPTV and Connected TV markets.
