Infrared (IR) is literally an invisible technology, but it powers some of the most important everyday gadgets — from TV remotes to motion detectors, robots, and even security systems. In this hands-on Divez, you’ll uncover the hidden world of IR. Using Arduino, you’ll learn how to send and receive IR signals, see them come to life on your computer, and use them to control real devices.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll build two fun projects:

* Universal Remote — copy and replay IR codes to control any IR-enabled device.
* Burglar Alarm — create a security system that sounds an alarm if anyone opens your box of treasures!

Come ready to explore the invisible tech all around you — and leave with the power to command it yourself.
