Contactless - Controlling the AC via a single touch using your Smartphone/iPad from anywhere

• No longer worry about where your AC remote control is.
• You can turn the AC on from anywhere outside if you want the house to get cool before heading back home.
• You can turn the AC off from anywhere outside if you forget this when leaving home.

Touchless - Controlling the AC with simple hand gestures

• If you don’t want to hand-touch digital devices, AC can be still easily controlled by very simple hand gestures: ‘thumb up’ to turn on and ‘stop sign’ to turn off.
• It is user-friendly and suitable for children or elders.

Flexible to switch between two controlling modes

• You can turn on the AC using your phone, and turn it off using hand gestures, and vice versa.
