built into the camcorder from a smartphone,
tablet, or other device over a wireless LAN
connection.
Using the Wi-Fi remote control allows you to
operate the camcorder remotely. This allows
you to start/stop recording or configure
settings remotely, and is useful in applications
where the camcorder is fixed in a remote
location or mounted on a crane, for example.
