Using advanced voice recognition technology, this is the thermostat that can be programmed using only your voice and clearly articulates the current indoor temperature. Endorsed by the National Federation of the Blind, the thermostat is ideal for the visually impaired or those who struggle with technology. Clapping your hands twice initiates the voice programming and you can change the temperature by saying "raise" or "lower" (each utterance adjusts the temperature by one degree). Using only your voice, you can program the thermostat for every day of the week and for four temperature changes per day, ensuring optimal comfort when you wake up, return home from work, and while you sleep. The trigger word "thermostat" prompts the device to vocalize the current time, the current temperature setting, and the actual indoor temperature. You can voice program the device from up to six feet away, or all functions are accessible from the control panel. Requires four AA batteries. 5" H x 5" W x 1 1/2" D. (13 1/2 oz.)
