IRBlaster with Wemos D1 Mini

thingiverse

This is the cover for the creation of an IRBlaster using a Wemos D1 Mini, an ESP-8266 based board. The library IRremoteESP8266, found at https://github.com/markszabo/IRremoteESP8266, was used as the foundation for this project. What's truly remarkable about this project is that it allows you to control everything with an IR remote using WiFi from another room and, if you're experienced in opening Router ports, even from anywhere in the world. With this IRBlaster, you can also control your devices via MQTT and integrate them into your IoT ecosystem. IMPORTANT: I'm a novice when it comes to CAD, so there may be some imperfections. The holes for the LEDs on top and the space for the Wemos at the bottom are very precise because I didn't want to use glue to secure the LEDs and board. As a result, you'll need to press firmly when inserting the LEDs and Wemos. In "Thing Files," you can find the .step CAD file created with Fusion 360; feel free to modify it. The steps required to make the IRBlaster are straightforward and demand only minimal experience with soldering irons and Arduino programming. To simplify the process, I've included a photo guide (https://imgur.com/a/ZkcW5) that includes the wiring schematic.
