ABSTRACT:
A reflective member, such as a mirror, is positioned at an oblique angle in front of the transmission window of an infrared remote control transmitter to allow infrared signals to be directed at a receiver without aiming directly at the receiver. The reflective member is mounted on a front panel which may be part of an add-on adapter secured to the front end of transmitter housing, and which may be adjustable in terms of length or angle of orientation relative to the top wall of the housing. Alternatively, the front panel may be an integral part of the transmitter housing.
