FLIRC-V2 IR Remote Control Receiver

The FLIRC-V2 IR Remote Control Receiver is a versatile and plug-and-play solution that transforms almost any infrared remote control into a keyboard for your computer or media centre. By mimicking a keyboard, it allows you to control applications directly, eliminating the need for specialised drivers or complex software installation.

Its primary use is with devices like the Raspberry Pi, turning it into a fully functional media centre controlled from your sofa. However, its compatibility extends far beyond, working seamlessly with Windows, Mac, and Linux systems. Whether you have an old remote in a drawer, a new TV remote, or a universal model, the FLIRC-V2 can learn its commands.
