Just wanted to share our latest post on the:
"Poor Maker's IR Receiver"
http://www.analysir.com/blog/2014/05/28/poor-makers-infrared-receiver-2/It describes a method to create your own IR receiver with the following:
- 2 resistors
- 1 IR Led
- 1 Arduino
Souce code is provided, which captures signal timings & modulation frequency.
Hopefully, it will be of interest or useful for some!
