Hi there,
My name is JrDeveloper and I am new to the Arduino forum. I am a fairly experienced programmer and developer who has recently made a change to embedded systems. I am currently in the process in making a miles tag compatible laser tag system that requires the use of 2 ATMega328 micro controllers. One will handle all of the game and IR logic and the other sound and visual effects. I was wondering if I could use the IRremote library I am already using to communicate with out Infra-red senders and receivers between the chips.
A direct wire would run from pin 3(output pin) on one chip to pin 9(input pin) on the other and encode and decode Hexadecimal data using the PWM output of pin 3 that runs into pin 9. The only difference between using an IR sender and Receiver is that a wire will bridge the gap, or at least this is my theory.
Failing that is there a library that allows me to use Rx and Tx to allow communication between the two chips.
I am only 15 so please go easy on me
Thanks.
