A remote control is used to operate electronic devices such as televisions, radios, and audio/video recording devices from a certain distance. A remote control duplicator is a copy of an original remote control, which is used as a replacement for an old remote control in an emergency situation. A remote control duplicator is also called a flipper, tuner, clicker or converter, and is capable of copying the learning code of an RF remote control face-to-face. It can be used in various application areas such as cars, gates, garage door openers, traffic barriers, and home security systems, among others. The usage of remote control duplicators can be seen in the residential sector, as misplacing the remote is a common problem in many households. A remote control duplicator can be operated through infrared and radio frequency signals. It can control a variety of functions such as the changing of channels, volume, and track numbers, besides other multiple features.
