6.7 IR Receiver Module
An IR receiver is a component which receives IR signals and can independently receive IR rays and output
signals compatible with TLL level.
Required Hardware
• 1 x Raspberry Pi
®
• 1 x breadboard
• 4 x jumper wire (male to male, 2 x red and 2 x black)
• 1 x network cable (or USB wireless network adapter)
• 1 x IR receiver module
• 1 x IR remote controller
• 1 x 3-pin anti-reverse cable
Here, we will send signals to the IR receiver by pressing buttons on the IR remote controller. The counter will
add 1 every time it receives signals, i.e. the increased number indicates the received IR signals.
