Car Infrared Remote

Control RGB, buzzer and car motion status through infrared remote control.

xxxxxxxxxx
Since the previous tutorial has explained the basic knowledge of all car modules, the car control tutorial will not repeat it, and mainly explain the ideas for implementing car functions!

Device connection

Hardware connection

Use Type-B data cable to connect Arduino Uno and computer.

Software connection

Open the "Arduino IDE" software and select the model and serial port number corresponding to the development board.

Implementation ideas

Use the infrared remote control with the infrared receiver to parse the data, and then control the corresponding peripheral status of the car according to the data.

Code Analysis

Here is only a brief introduction to the code content. For detailed code, please refer to the corresponding code file, which is provided in the download area!

• Include Wire、IRremote、Adafruit_NeoPixel、Adafruit_PWMServoDriver library
