ESP8266 Infrared Transmission and Reception Module
📌 Product Overview
The ESP8266 infrared transmit and receive module is a NEC instruction WIFI transparent transmission module built around the easy-to-develop ESP8266 (ESP-12F) wireless SoC chip. It integrates infrared transmitting and receiving circuits, supporting 38KHz infrared signal. After connecting to WIFI, it receives NEC-format remote control signals and transmits the data via UDP to another same module, which then re-sends the infrared signal, realizing cross-room infrared remote control forwarding. Equipped with Type-C power supply interface, it adopts web page network configuration for simple setup, suitable for smart home infrared signal repeater, embedded secondary development and DIY remote control extension projects.
✨ Core Features
