IR Tansmitter



I got my IR Receiver and Transmitter this week and was able to mess with it.  My goal was to get PIGPIO to work in conjunction with getting it to transmit.  I took my remote from my projector and was able to copy the code from the remote.  Then I took my transmitter and sent that same code out to the projector.  It worked like a charm.  Of course I will need to bring that code over to my main video python code, but I like what I am seeing.  Here is a quick video of how it works.  I wanted to be able to send an IR shutoff code to the projector right before the closing of each night so it has enough time to cool down.  Or I could loose a lot of lamps or bulbs.
