I'm working on a project where I'm sending some IR signals to an stb. Do you suggest any approach or some hardware piece so I can direct the signal only to the box the IR sender is pointed at?
Because I have more stbs below and they're receiving the signal too. I don't want that.
Once I found a "IR blocker" that only allowed the signal to go in one direction, but can't find it anymore. If you know something about this please let me know.
Light scatter is going to be tough to deal with even with a throw-focused flashlight reflector or some such. Not sure how close the other stbs are, but if you want a narrow beam aimed at a tiny sensor, you might need an IR laser. Also, what is an stb?
