IR sensor

The remote control of the TV uses RF (radio frequency) to send
its commands to the TV. With RF, you do not need to point the
remote control at the TV.
However, the TV can also receive commands from a remote
control that uses IR (infrared) to send commands. If you use
such a remote control, always make sure you point the remote
control at the infrared sensor on the front of the TV.

infrared signals, with this remote control you can send
commands without pointing at the TV.

control is low.
