Inspiration

I needed the ability to control home appliances with an IR remote control when I am away from home

What it does

This device can control lighting, TV and air conditioning from a smartphone via the Internet.

How we built it

I created a device based on the ESP8266 board and an Android application.

Challenges we ran into

It was necessary to create and configure project in a Firebase platform for sending commands and identifying users.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I was able to configure remotes through the Web interface.

What we learned

I improved my skills in working with the Firebase platform, app design and Kotlin programming.

What's next for Smart IR Remote

Ability to add remotes of other devices in the application.
