This is a really neat way to pull off remote technology. I wonder if there are still any applications for this type of ultrasound remote tech.

I remember people claiming they could activate these by flexing cans.

That would make sense, flexing cans would create the ultrasonic noise the TV is listening for. Even still, I think it's a neat technology.

I think that kinda just makes it cooler. Lose the remote? Flex a can!
