This project introduces the concept of using modulation of an Infrared beam to facilitate control by IR under normal ambient lighting conditions. The receiver (RX) is set to accept only signals from its matched transmitter (TX). The switch action of the RX is alternate ON-OFF. Applications include lighting, heating and appliance control.
