we are looking into an ipad version as this would be a natural extension to our IR app now.

we are working on some other portions also right now which Ron mentioned. here is a video showing some of them in development now.



the features are:

0:00 – 0:25 = auto start into GUI option. Here you can choose to start right into a gui of a device so after this is done you can basically just start the app and have it start right into a gui of a device all the time if you want. Great for small setups where you always use the same device only or initially.

0:25-0:50 = macro example. name the macro whatever you want and call it from the bitwise unit. the macro is stored directly on the bitwise unit. why do this? 1. instant macro support. the macro is called directly on the unit itself. no need to process it on the app side or send multiple commands, etc. 2. less chance of interference with macro. by doing it this way we just send a single quick command to the bitwise unit. if we had long commands coming from the app then there could be issues with latency, wifi connections, processing commands in order on unit if they receive them out of order, etc. it becomes more efficient this way.

0:51-end = punch through example – map any existing device button to another existing device button. example: you use your cable tv GUI all the time but when you click volume up/down you really want to control the tv or a/v receiver volume buttons without having to go to that device for control. now you will be able to easily select one button and map it to that button from another device.

as far as pricing is concerned if you take a look at the functionality of the unit and comparable units it is right in line. if you look at CI remotes with head units like you see on this board that are popular you are looking at $500-1200 in many cases + programming so no i don't think price is bad at all for the unit. again IMO on this one. remember this unit comes with a full IR dbase built in, a built in learner, IR ports + blaster, rs232, relays, GPIO, temp sensor, macro support, etc. overall it has tons of functionality for a small appliance.
