For millions of people the Kymera Wand is a wish come true, bringing alive the magic of fantasies such as Harry Potter. Inside the wand's ancient-looking exterior beats a heart of pure science fiction - it is the world's first motion-sensitive, buttonless universal remote control. With just a flick and a swish the Kymera can magically control a TV, DVD, digibox, iPod dock or almost anything that uses a standard infrared (IR) remote control.
