Hi Stef,

A great project, well designed, and very well documented and presented.
Thanks! I'll probably make one of these pretty soon.

Nice work

hi All, Inspired by some applications of the 16F84 PIC, we came up with the idea to make a IR-module, which is capable of doing all the InfraRed tasks we could imagine with the RCX. Well it hasn't come so far, but we have build a RCX IR-remote (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
