Elmo has been in hibernation for over a year now due to other commitments and loss of momentum. However the purchase of some new equipment has prompted me to start work once again.
I've finally fathomed out my problems with IR reception (down to my own misunderstanding of the protocol) and I've managed to recover the development environment to the point of building test code again. I've also spent some time learning about iOS programming.
I suspect progress will be slow since I'm away from home alot at the moment.
Having managed to receive some meaningful data on the IR device, my next step is to write a tool that makes some sense of the data in preparation for retransmission. I intend to focus on a single IR remote control for now and get to the point of being able to send a few simple commands. This should be reasonable simple, but with IR it never seems to quite work that way.
More news, as it happens.
