Inside TV Remote Control - The remote control's job is to
wait for you to press a key, and then to translate that
key-press into infrared (pronounced "infra-red") light signals
that are received by the TV. When you take off the back cover
of the control you can see what is inside it.

The Next to Minimal InfraRed Transmitter for PC - The
Next to Minimal InfraRed Transmitter for PC was designed for
a specific purpose: to invoke the 'Easy Startup Menu' of a
SONY AV equipment, whose remote control is missing. No
soldering iron, nor a oscillator was available - only one
spare part infra red LED and a couple of hours. The solution
was obvious - the infra red LED could be inserted to the
parallel port, and both the carrier and modulator produced
by software.

Universal IR Controller for a PC - This simple circuit
allows you to record any IR remote control signal on your
PC, and then play it back. This is particularly useful if
you want to control appliances such as TVs, VCRs, CDs etc.
from your computer. The device simply connects to the
parallel port of your PC. You can also use this circuit to
analyze the waveform from any IR remote control. This
circuit was originally published in Electronics Australia,
September 1998.

How to build a simple but cool IR (Infra Red) receiver -
This is a step by step guide to build a serial infrared
receiver for your computer, with many pictures and detailed
instructions. This circuitry allows you to control your
computer with a simple remote, like the one you already use
for your TV-set. You can use LIRC for Linux or WinLIRC, the
windows port as the control software.

Universal Infrared Receiver - a small (1x2x1 inch)
device that allows you to control your PC with the remote
from your TV, VCR, CD or Stereo, based on PIC 12C509,
connects to RS-232 port, also version for PIC 16C84
-
Universal Infrared Receiver - This is an UIR compatible
infrared remote controller receiver that plugs to PC serial
port. It is implemented using IR remote receiving module and
PIC16F84. This device can be used for example with Girder
software to control your PC.
Software
-
Evation IrMan Software - directory of software packages
for IrMan and compatible IR receivers for Windows, includes
plugins for Winamp and Powerpoint
-
Girder - program that receives the codes from the
Universal Infrared Receiver (UIR) or the IRman and
translates them into actions in your Windows computer
-
IRAssistant - shareware software for controlling your PC
remotely, can emulate mouse actions, launch applications and
send command sequences (macros) with an ordinary remote
controller, can be used with many different IR receiving
modules, for example with populat
-
IRControl for Windows - software designed basically to
launch Winamp player and PC Remote Control with the help of
your remote, works with IRMAN - device, or The Universal
Infrared Receiver
-
LIRC - Linux software package that allows you to decode
and send infra-red signals of many (but not all) commonly
used remote controls
-
PC Remote Control - This software that lets you remotely
control your computer from the serial port (RS-232). This
software works with many IR receivers, including commercial
and homebuilt design. This software works also with
IrDA-compliant transceiver module with ASK/TV Remote
compatibility.
-
uICE - The universal Infrared Control Engine - remotely
controls many Windows procedures such as executing/closing
applications, simulating keyboard input, adjusting audio
volume and shutting down your machine by receiving commands
from infrared or fm remote control receiver hardware
connected to your computer
-
WinLIRC - Windows equivalent of LIRC, the Linux Infrared
Remote Control program which allows reception of IR signals
with very simple receiver circuit. WinLIRC allows you to
transmit and receive standard infrared remote control
signals. This allows you to control your computer using
almost any standard infrared remote control. It also allows
your computer to control other equipment which uses these
signals (stereo equipment).
