Answer:

Lazy Bones

Step-by-step explanation:

Zenith created the "Lazy Bones," the first television remote control, in 1950. The Lazy Bones could change the station and volume of a television, as well as switch it on and off. However, it wasn't a wireless remote control. The Lazy Bones remote control was connected to the television by a thick, lengthy connection. Customers worried about stumbling over the cable even though they liked being able to operate their televisions remotely. Five years later, the wireless TV remote control would be created, putting an end to this problem.
