IR_Remote_Control_Lesson-DFRobot

Introduction

This is the simple hands-on experiments. Use the IR remote controller to control the LED and buzzer by the IR receiver. You must firstly follow the diagram to complete the connection.Then,you can use the single components or the existing sensors, which all can be help you to realize the function.

Hardware Requierments

For Reference Only

  1. 1x DFRduino UNO R3
  2. 1x IR receiver

Code Sample

/*
 # The sample code displayed the decode processing.
 # When you press the button 'VOL+' of IR remote controller,the red led will be on.
 # And, when you press the button 'VOL-' of the controller ,the buzzer will rang.
