"RF Remote" is short for "Radio Frequency Remote Control."
So you're tipping and shaking the remote control.
I thought the term would be clear, but apparently not. A quick search of that term gets you to the correct results, though. [1]
"RF" is specified to let you know it's not an infrared remote, so tipping it won't end up sending the "beam" in the wrong direction, and it will (probably) be more reliable in general than an IR remote would be. Certainly the range should be longer.

- eridius 15y agoI know what an rf remote is, but this is what the article says: > The simply-titled HDMI Dongle is effectively an entire system on a chip dongle (and yeah, it looks a lot like Roku's Streaming Stick), boasting a Cortex-A9, between 256MB and 1GB of RAM, inbuilt WiFi / Bluetooth, an NFC module and even an accelerometer. It explicitly states that the HDMI Dongle contains an accelerometer. It sounds likely at this point that the article is just flat-out wrong, but that's clearly what it states.
