You should have checked a stained glass shop. Copper tape is a common item there as it is used in one method of making small stained glass pieces.

Great article. How do you like the Parallax USB scope? I have been thinking about getting a USB scope to compliment by conventional one which doesn’t have any capture capability.

@Kapil

If you have never used a microcontroller before there is some learninng to do. Sorry to sound rude, but I am not really too sure if you have a specific question or if you just want me to do your homework for you. If you need guidance on programming and using microcontrollers, you may want to buy an Arduino (if you don’t already have one) and some simple books on electronics. I would suggest a Forrest Mims book. Also, the Arduino site is a good place to start learning. Read the reference, trouble shoot on the forum.

If you are still willing to finish your project, check this project: http://zovirl.com/2008/11/12/building-a-universal-remote-with-an-arduino/

but if you give up and don’t think it is worth all the time, you could go to radioshack and get a universal remote. It does exactly what you explained.

Hi, I am trying to build something as a final project for college, and I’m getting held up without any idea of what to do. I think you did a really great job of explaining this, and I was hoping you had an answer to my issue. I’m trying to build a learning remote for channels up, down, and power. All it has to do is take in an IR signal and store it to be able to send it back out. You wrote out how to take a signal and interpret it, is there a way to tweak this to store and resend the signal? This is my first time ever using a microcontroller.

Thanks

@gijs

Thanks for sharing the results of your experiment. That actually makes sense I think… It is maybe just accumulating that waveform on its own. I would try shining a flashlight at it while testing to see if that interrupts the signal just out of curiosity

@Steve and Jonah

Thanks for the encouraging words
