The first TV remote control, called "Lazy Bones," was developed in 1950 by Zenith Electronics Corporation (then known as Zenith Radio Corporation). Lazy Bones used a cable that ran from the TV set to the viewer. In 1956, Zenith's Dr. Robert Adler suggested using "ultrasonic's," that is, high-frequency sound, beyond the range of human hearing. He was assigned to lead a team of engineers to work on the first use of ultrasonic's technology in the home as a new approach for a remote control.
Robert Adler, who worked for Zenith is credited with inventing the remote control for television. Robert Adler also invented the hand-held blow dryer for hair, a weather radio, and push button channel selectors for televisions.
Robert Adler invented the first workable wireless remote control for the television. Born in Austria, he earned his doctorate in physics at Vienna, then fled the Nazis, first coming to England, then America, where he was hired by Zenith in 1941.

The tv remote was invented back in 1950.It was something called "lazy bones" which was a wired remote, it had just a channel button and power button.The flashmatic was the first wireless remote which was a flashlight tv remote control,had 1 button for the light pointing at a controller switch on the tv,and 1 to get the remote turned on.Using a tv remote before 1980 was a set-top remote capable with any control the tv would detect even though it wasn't a universal remote.TV remotes during the '80s were either wired to the tv or ir since those both were the standards.Wireless stopped becoming a standard since it represented mid 50s- late '50s household usage,and ir became better for tv remotes than a wireless tv remote control
