An integrated Symphony Cordless PCI Card within the iRobot-LEs will allow it to receive commands from any PC within 150 feet that also uses Symphony. Users can employ their Internet browser to see and hear remotely through the iRobot's integrated audio and video technology and control iRobot's appendages, directing it to climb stairs and WebDrive around the home, taking care of pets, monitoring activities in the home and even allowing distant friends and relatives to tune in with audio and video access.
Robots combined with wirefree technology offer incredible possibilities.
Symphony is the perfect match for iRobot technology, because the product's high-speed capabilities and compatibility with future voice, video and data integration offer a path for future innovation. The iRobot-LE comes with a complete package for daily use and operation. Additional Symphony products offer owners wirefree control of the robot through the Internet by purchase of a Symphony-HRF Cordless Gateway along with a Cordless PC Card for laptops, or a Cordless USB Adapter or Symphony PCI Card for desktop PCs. A Symphony Cordless Ethernet Bridge or Symphony-HRF Gateway will then create the ability to network the home without wires. Symphony products are available now and Symphony-HRF products will be available this December at retail outlets including CompUSA, Fry's Electronics and Office Depot.
