=== Vu Remote ===
The Vu Remote is a touchpad-based remote control. The remote is borrowed from an unreleased Android-based microconsole called the ZRRO and its touch controller and its system called the zTouch.
The Vu Remote also includes an accelerometer and haptic feedback.
=== Additional peripherals ===
In most of the Europe, Oceania, and parts of Southeast Asia, a DVB-T2 tuner is available for the VuStick. In countries where ISDB-T is available (excluding Japan), an ISDB-T tuner is also available as well.
== Software ==
The VuStick uses a fork of Android TV called VuOS, which has been already upgraded to Android Marshmallow 6.0.1. According to Vu Corporation, they asked permission to Google to allow distributing the Android TV fork on all of their devices manufactured by Vu Corporation.
Currently, the VuStick supports running most games and applications on the Play Store (that are optimized for tablets).
Root mode can be activated by enabling it in the "Developer mode" options.Category:Electronics
