Hello, it's been a while since I wrote.
I made this because there were too many remotes at home and I wanted to combine them into one, but it turned out to be quite useful so I'm sharing it.
What is it..
- If you attach an IR receiver module and IR LED to a Raspberry Pi Pico (RP2040), it becomes a learning board. The cost of parts is only a few thousand won.
- Instead of interpreting the remote control signal, it records the original timing as is and shoots it again, so it works well with old devices or unknown devices that are not on the code list.
- You can learn by simply pressing buttons after connecting the board to your PC via USB. You can also change the button layout as you like.
Remote control learning is done by connecting the board and proceeding through https://zbd.kr/ir like keyboard VIA ^^a
- I'm using it as a universal remote control by gathering things like TV power, speaker volume, and lighting on one screen.
- The Android app shoots with IR on your phone. If you have a phone with IR like Xiaomi, you can use it without the board, and if you don't have IR, you can connect the board to OTG.
- The board firmware is open-sourced under MIT.
Almost everything from firmware to web and Android apps was made with Claude and Vibe coding.
I just held the actual remote control and tested it, saying "Make this work". (It would have taken me several months if I had done it alone...)
