The IR emitter will be on the side so it points to the devices you want to control when the tablet is held in the portrait orientation with the camera at the top. Any IR transmitter software should be written to use this mode as well as the landscape orientation.

There would also be a emitter in the landscape mode so the keyboard can also be used. The is a easy feature.

With this part of the mod the tablet can be made into a very sophisticated home automation remote control but as I said the software is not my department.

Thanks
