SparkFun ESP8266 WiFi IR Blaster (DEV-15031)
The WiFi IR Blaster is designed to connect all of your old, legacy IR-controlled devices to a WiFi network -- exposing them to a new method of control. Want to control your TV via a web-browser? Want to ask Alexa to mute your stereo? Want to schedule triggers to your IR-controlled LED strip? These are all applications that the WiFi IR Blaster is perfect for.
The WiFi IR Blaster combines an ESP8266 -- a powerful WiFi/microcontroller SoC -- with an IR emitter and receiver. With built-in WiFi support, the ESP8266 can be programmed to provide an interface between HTTP, MQTT, TCP, and UDP services and infrared-controlled devices.
This product includes the WiFi IR Blaster, a Lite-ON LTE-302 infrared emitter, and a TSOP38238 IR receiver. The IR emitter and detector are not populated on the board -- allowing you to assemble them in any orientation your project requires.
For help getting started, check out our WiFi IR Blaster Hookup Guide, which explains how to assemble the board, program it, and use the IRremoteESP8266 Arduino library.
