Abstract

Control of remote devices is achieved by having httpd (Web server) on a dedicated firmware device. A firmware device with a httpd (Web server) programmed into its memory takes commands from a remote http client (Web client). The firmware sends interface information to the target device with electronic, electromagnetic, or infrared signals to control the target device. The firmware may be integrated into an IC chip so product makers can have the same remote control capability within their product.
