Indiegogo: AnalysIR - IR decoder & analyzer with Arduino (IR kits available now)

Campaign update:

Our campaign for AnalysIR has just 5 days left to run, finishing on Sept 1st. There are just 3 kits remaining & this will be the last chance to get AnalysIR at one of the pre-release prices of $1, $5, $10, $15, or $20 (depending on class of user, the $1 price is as close to free as we can have on IGG).

We have also ported our Arduino code to Raspberry Pi (RPi) and have learned some of the differences between the 2 platforms. For what we are doing with AnalysIR, Arduino is superior (so far, we havent been able to accurately measure IR modulation frequency on RPi), which was initially surprising considering the 16MHz vs 700Mhz CPU speed. But apparently, its because Arduino is dedicated to IO & RPi is a linux based OS doing lots of other things simultaneously. I believe RPi can perform better with kernel patches, but we don't want to go there yet.

Just read the blog post on the upcomming Arduino Yún release today and can't wait to get AnalysIR running on it......

One bonus with the RPi is that we can decode & analyze IR signals over the LAN, a feature which the Yún will also provide via WiFi.

Many thanks to the Forum members who supported our AnalysIR project :slight_smile:

PS: Both Arduino & RPi are great at doing what they were designed for, they are just different.
