How I built a simple IR blaster to replace my aircon remote // Arduino, sensors, infrared, WebUSB

Описание: #remote #infrared #blaster
I built the simplest IR blaster to replace some functions of my infrared remote control for my Mitsubishi aircon model MSY-GE10VA. I go through some similar developer and consumer devices that are already available in the market to understand what technologies are used. Then I proceed to explain how to integrate the core functions of an infrared receiver and transmitter. A tiny demo shows how the configuration mode works with the WebUSB protocol. And finally, the aircon functions for turning ON and OFF are recorded and replayed from the custom PCB.
