Arduino Based True Serial Receivers

IR Receivers with a built in arudino micro-controller allow for true serial port communication over a USB virtual com port. Plug and play: Device shows up as a virtual com port and can decode and/or analyze IR Signals. No special software required on PC/embedded applications.

Firmare Option 1: IR Dump

Part of the IRLib2 examples: prints and analyzes IR codes

Example output:
