People who love to sing their hearts out will be happy to know that they can now stop leafing through thick song catalogs and enter the song's number in a remote just to be able to sing their favorite songs. Through the recent collaboration of engineers and designers from IBM Technology Collaboration Solutions and Xing Inc., two new wireless karaoke portable controllers - "Kyoku-NAVI II" and "Kyoku-NAVIs" - is set be launched in Japan in November.
So what makes these wireless karaoke portable controllers special? Well, each controllers contains tens of thousands of songs listed by singer, song and category. Just enter songs by song title, artist or genre in the touch screen panel using a stylus. Users can also register their favorite songs in the controller. A wireless LAN will also be incorporated into the new controllers that allow high speed transmission of songs and data in volume. Several search functions have also been added to make searching more fun like the "album-single search", which allows users to search by viewing CD jacket images. Both controllers are shock resistant and water proof which makes them ideal for big parties and celebrations.
Each controller has unique features. Kyoku-NAVIs has a remote controller allows users to wirelessly select a song by name, by artist, or by song genre from the controller's screen. Users can also access contents such as promotional videos and information on sports through the screen as additions. On the other hand, Kyoku-NAVI II has all the features that Kyoku-NAVIs has but it has an interesting addition of allowing users to order food and drink from its touch screen.
