Week 24: Remote Control

Overview of Activity

In this meeting, members first wire their IR receiver, which allows the remote control to communicate with the Arduino (Slide 2). Afterwards, they learn about transmission of data through Serial and did a quick activity where they print lines of text in Serial Monitor (Slides 5-6). They then download the IRremote library (Slide 7) and learn remote control programming through sample code. Finally, they were given a challenge to allow remote control to control the servo position.
