IRRX
A package for deciphering and (eventually) sending IR signals using TinyGo.
A More Generic Approach
I've taken a more generic approach to IR than some other existing packages. When using the package, you pass a "RxStateMachine" which is what actually decodes the IR signals, making a wider variety of encoding schemes easier to support.
Simpler (and hopefully faster) than the irremote package (https://github.com/tinygo-org/drivers/blob/release/irremote/receiver.go) that is, IMHO, amusingly over-written.
Out of the Box Support
Here are what IR schemes are supported out of the box, PRs adding support for other schemes are welcome.
- NEC (most common kind of IR remote control, like for TVs)
- HEXBUG 6-button remote controls
- PPM-over-IR (this isn't a thing, but it could be)
Not just IR
Because of how the demodulating IR receivers work, you could theoretically hook up, say, a PPM radio control receiver directly to an MCU and use this package plus the PPM StateMachine to decode the PPM signals.
Basically anything that can be decoded as timed on-off pairs will work here.
