Samsung is showcasing all sorts of products and technological innovations these days. The Infinity TV remote is one of the most striking and interesting gadgets we have seen so far.

Samsung claims that around 50 million tons of electronic devices are thrown away every year. And that only 17% of them are recycled.

And since we are in the era of the environment, with all the big companies and organizations fighting to stop climate change, the Samsung team did not hesitate to present their new products focused on this objective.

Among the most remarkable inventions, today we focus on the remote control that Samsung has presented which does not require batteries since it takes advantage of a very old technology but which, until now, we did not know how to put implement these gadgets.

Samsung says that, assuming a typical TV is used for about seven years, changing the batteries in your remote just once a year would mean that 14 batteries would be used and thrown away every seven years.

If we apply that figure to Samsung Electronics' annual TV sales, it's roughly around 99 million batteries thrown away. And when applied to annual TV sales in general, that's nearly 3,100 million batteries, they point out.

This is a problem, especially when batteries start to make less sense every day. But instead of using lithium batteries, which are polluting and very expensive due to their scarcity, Samsung thought of creating controls with a self-rechargeable battery.

For this, several charging methods have been considered, including one that takes advantage of the kinetic energy that is created when the control is shaken, and another that uses the vibrational energy that is created when the microphone picks up sounds.

Despite the fact that it is already one of the majority formats on the market, there is still a halo of urban legend and myths about 4K televisions. Surely you are interested in continuing to read because it is time to bury these 7 myths when buying a 4K TV.

But ultimately what was decided was to use a solar cell. To do this, they added a few small solar panels, which only need light entering the room, no matter how strong.

The problem with this solution is that for the remote control to work, it must consume very little power. Much less than what they currently consume.

This led engineers to create a low-power remote control rather than looking for ways to increase power output. The Samsung team succeeded in increasing the energy efficiency of the remote control by reducing its power consumption by 86%.

Samsung's mid-range mobile with 5G connection, 6.5″ screen, 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage and 64MP camera.

To do this, they took into account users' TV viewing habits, the number of times they pressed the buttons on the remote control and the time of use.

According to the researchers, if disposable batteries were replaced by self-charging solar cells such as those developed, up to 6,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions would be eliminated per year.
