Abstract: Various arrangements for remote control battery compartment cover removal systems and methods are presented. A sensor may measure the distance from the sensor to a remote control that is inserted into a housing. An extendable arm may have a compressible impact component, such that when the extendable arm is extended from an unextended position and the remote control is inserted into the housing, the compressible impact component actuates a latching mechanism of the remote control's battery compartment cover.
