2. Wireless light switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_light_switch

   Wireless light switches eliminate the wire from the light to the switch location. This is useful in remodelling situations where new wiring can be a hassle. Rather than tearing down a wall to gain access to the wires, a wireless switch can be used. This avoids any need to access wires and makes remodelling fast and simple.

3. Light switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_switch

   A wireless light switch provides remote control of lighting using a hand-held transmitter. While the controlling device may be a unit dedicated to this purpose, increasingly such switches may be controlled by the technology (such as Bluetooth or Wi-Fi) now found in smartphones.

4. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

   In building wiring, multiway switching is the interconnection of two or more electrical switches to control an electrical load from more than one location.A common application is in lighting, where it allows the control of lamps from multiple locations, for example in a hallway, stairwell, or large room.

5. Switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch

   A switch may be directly manipulated by a human as a control signal to a system, such as a computer keyboard button, or to control power flow in a circuit, such as a light switch. Automatically operated switches can be used to control the motions of machines, for example, to indicate that a garage door has reached its full open position or that ...

6. Lightning switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Switch

   The Lightning Switch transmitter requires no outside source of electricity.Each time the transmitter button is pressed, the transmitter converts the mechanical energy supplied by the user's finger into electricity to power a radio transmission to a receiver/relay through the use of a piezoelectric generator (brand name: Lightning) originally invented by the National Aeronautics and Space ...

7. Remote control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_control

   Most of these were connected to the set being controlled by wires, but the Philco Mystery Control (1939) was a battery-operated low-frequency radio transmitter, [14] thus making it the first wireless remote control for a consumer electronics device. Using pulse-count modulation, this also was the first digital wireless remote control.
