IR Receiver Wireling
DESCRIPTION
This Wireling lets you receive Infrared signals in the 38 kHz range, standard for most TV and appliance remotes. This sensor demodulates the 38 kHz carrier frequency and outputs only the High-Low signals, making it easily integrable with existing Arduino libraries. Well documented and easy to use IR protocols include the Sony, Sharp and NEC protocols, often included in Arduino IR Libraries.

It actually plays my old home videos on a screen the size of a stamp. It's my desk's favorite object.
The remote is absurd and I love it. Setup took five minutes and my clips looked crisp on that little screen.
Build quality is unreal for something this small. Feels like a real gadget, not a toy — and it's made here.
Gifted one to my brother and now the whole family wants one. Tiny, but seriously mighty.
Battery lasts through a work day on my shelf and the fireplace loop is weirdly cozy. Zero regrets.
Loading my own videos over USB was dead simple. It's the best desk conversation-starter I own.
