With the advent of WiFi-connected “smart” devices, IR remotes are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Why sort
through a coffee table-full of remotes when you probably have a much smarter, WiFi-connected device device
sitting conveniently in your hand?
The WiFi IR Blaster is designed to connect all of those old, legacy IR-controlled devices to a WiFi network –
exposing them to a new method of control. Want to control your TV via a web-browser? Want to ask Alexa to mute
your stereo? Want to schedule triggers to your IR-controlled LED strip? These are all applications that the WiFi IR
Blaster is perfect for.
