Hi all, I am looking to design a remote controled rheostat (as in no wires conecting one piece to the other). The distance would be at max aprox 150 feet or less. Can someone point me in the right direction on info that would help me. I am at best a novice in this field but willing to learn whatever i need to to do this project. (Wanting to win a bet Smile ). Thanks!

It would be variable, as in if i rotate the handheld device 20 degrees, the rheostat at distance will do the same. Any ideas??
