Authors comments
The user feels it is a challenge to adapt anything he buys so he can use it unassisted. He can use the key ring to grasp the remote control unit. The anti-slip material keeps it in place when it is lying on his lap. He uses both key rings and anti-slip material for many applications. He received the anti-slip material from an occupational therapist.
