Step 5: Place the IR Lightbar between yourself and the screen you
will be viewing.
For example, fasten the included
metal pads with tape to your TV or
the back of your PC lid or a table.
This will make it easy to attach/detach
the Lightbar’s magnetic mount.
Now start your iWavit app and point
to your screen.

3D Tracking
The iWavit 3D tracking system is
based on infrared (IR) light being
emitted from the Lightbar. This is
used by the iWavit attachment to
track its own absolute pointing
direction, roll angle and distance from
the Lightbar.
This does mean that care should be
taken to avoid placing bright exposed
lights near the Lightbar which could
confuse the tracking system. This
includes bare light bulbs and candles.
Lamp shades are generally OK.
Anti-shake
When using the iWavit as a PC laser
pointer, it should be noted that
pointing stability varies with how
steady the user’s hand is. The iWavit
has a built-in dynamic anti-shake
feature which greatly improves
pointing stability.
Nevertheless, it is good practice to
lean you hand against a surface when
pointing. This could be your knee,
armrest on a chair, or the side of you
body.

Getting started
Your iPhone has just become the
Ultimate Remote Control. You can
now control almost any IR device and
PC/Mac/Linux or set-top box. You
can even control a Windows 7 PC
with voice commands (using Windows
Speech Recognition). The iWavit
includes patented 3D position &
orientation tracking technology which
allows you to simply point at the TV
screen to move the cursor. Where
you point is where the cursor goes!
Note that no installation of software is
required on the PC/Mac. The iWavit
dongle is plug-and-play.
You can choose from a growing
number of iWavit iPhone apps that
transform the iPhone into different
virtual remotes, including :
3D Direct-Pointing PC Mouse
Wireless USB keyboard
Universal IR Learning Remote
Wireless PC Microphone
Business Presenter
PC Media Center Remote
IR & RF Remote for Mac
Multi-touch Trackpad
…and many more virtual remotes

The iWavit Apps
ThinkOptics is continually building new
iWavit remote control apps which you
can download from the App Store.
Here are two must-have apps.
Tabula Rasa & Wavit Flow
Tabula Rasa is a Remote Control
Editor app that allows you to create
your own Virtual Remote Controls and
functions and share them online with
the rest of the world, if desired. You
can learn IR codes or search our
database of IR codes. You can also
control the PC. Tabula Rasa is the
"Blank Slate“ on which you can create
your own master-piece remote control.
The Wavit Flow app is the "One Remote
To Rule Them All, and In The Darkness
Bind Them". Swipe your finger across
the screen to quickly thumb through
cover-flow art of all your different Wavit
remotes, or select ALL REMOTES to
browse through all the Wavit Remotes
that are currently available on the App
store.

iWavit On-The-Go
The iWavit kit comes in a clear
Executive Carrying Case. After you
unpack it, you can reverse the inside
paper cover (and optionally tear off the
back flap).
Now, when you transport your iWavit
attachment, USB dongle & Lightbar,
you can quickly set up by leaving the
IR Lightbar inside the Case while
threading the Lightbar cable out the
side of the box and connecting it to the
USB dongle. The Lightbar should be
visible through the front window of the
case.
