Infrared Transmitting And Receiving Module Key benefits - 38 kHz carrier infrared signal transmission supported - Four infrared emitting tubes arranged at the corners provide 360° infrared coverage with no blind spots - Can receive instructions from other infrared remote controls and trigger corresponding actions - When used with a microcontroller, can emit infrared commands to control electronic products such as air conditioners, fans, and similar devices What it does - Transmits and receives infrared signals for remote control applications - The four corner arrangement enables broad, uniform IR coverage for room-wide control Compatibility and integration - Designed to work with microcontroller-based systems - Capable of learning or receiving commands from existing IR remotes and re-emitting appropriate IR signals to control devices Attributes and performance - Carrier frequency: 38 kHz - Transmitting elements: four infrared tubes - Coverage: 360-degree infrared transmission without blind spots Use scenarios - Home automation in a central location: place the module in a room to control multiple devices (air conditioners, fans, etc.) without pointing remotes directly at each device - DIY universal remote project: capture commands from existing remotes and re-emit them through a microcontroller driven IR transmitter - Retrofit and replacement projects: extend remote control coverage in spaces where line-of-sight to devices is limited or obstructed How to use (data-driven guidance) - Integrate with a microcontroller to send IR commands and, when needed, receive and interpret incoming IR signals from remotes - Implement control logic to map received commands to emitted IR signals for target devices such as air conditioners and fans Notes - No additional details on size or materials are provided; design emphasizes four-corner IR emission, 360-degree coverage, and microcontroller compatibility
