A USB infrared receiver for NEC-compatible remotes, built using an AVR micrcontroller. Includes host software using libusb. The host software is written for linux, but can be easily adapted for any other system.
###Compliation and Flashing
The firmware using avr-libc and is built using the AVR GCC toolchain. Assuming you have these installed, you can build and flash the firmware onto the device using make:
make
make fuses
make flash
Building the host software uses clang but can be switched to GCC with minimal changes to the Makefile.
make
The host software looks for a file /etc/usbremote_commands, which is expected to be in the following format:
commandcode:command
0:reboot
