This infrared remote controller is programmable for use with many different brands of televisions and other devices — for example, you can use it to control your robot. The 38.5kHz signals from this remote are compatible with the IR receiver included in the Boe-Bot, Shield-Bot, and ActivityBot robot kits. Your robot's microcontroller brain can decode the remote's signals, and then drive, blink lights or make sounds in response. If you don't already have a 38kHz IR receiver on hand for your project, consider purchasing the IR Remote Parts Kit which includes this remote, an IR receiver and a 220Ω resistor.
