This kit shows you how the invisible IR signals are captured, decoded, and posted instantly to a cloud webhook, so you can control real appliances from a mobile dashboard, even when you're not at home. It's a hands-on way to explore how IoT bridges everyday objects with the internet, using components and concepts that power real-world home automation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll wire up a breadboard circuit with the TSOP1738 sensor directly reading IR pulses from any standard remote. The ESP8266 NodeMCU transforms those pulses into hexadecimal codes and forwards each button press to a webhook URL of your choice.
