A simple Arduino driver for the NEC (Japanese) Infrared IR protocol. Drive an IR LED direct with your own code. This is a direct pin bit-bang approach, so beware about interrupts and timing difference between hardware. Feel free to use hardware PWM to generate the carrier frequency if you want better accuracy.

// NEC (Japanese) Infrared code sending library for the Arduino
// Send a standard NEC 4 byte protocol direct to an IR LED on the define pin
// Assumes an IR LED connected on I/O pin to ground, or equivalent driver.
// Tested on a Freetronics Eleven Uno compatible

Installing Python 3.7.0 on Raspbian

As of July 2018, Raspbian does not yet include the latest Python release, Python 3.7.0 This means we will have to build it ourselves, and here is how to do it.

  1. Install the required build-tools (some might already be installed on your system).
