Wokwi simulator - Remote control of Home Appliances using IR receiver and ESP32
In this video, we demonstrate how to control home appliances remotely using an IR Receiver and ESP32.
With this project, any standard TV/DVD/Set-top box IR remote can be used to wireless switch ON/OFF electrical devices like lights, fans, and other appliances through a relay connected to the ESP32.
The ESP32 reads and decodes the infrared signals received from the IR remote. Each key press on the remote generates a unique hexadecimal code, which is mapped to turn ON/OFF the connected appliance.
This is a simple and effective home automation solution that works without Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
