Summary

In this chapter, we saw how to use an IR remote and an RF remote with an Arduino. You were also challenged to think outside of the box and think of other ways that you could remotely control your project without using a wireless signal. The reason this challenge was in this last project chapter was to get you to start thinking outside of the box when designing your projects because thinking outside of the box and creating new and improved ways to do something is what gets people excited about these types of projects. It can also make you a lot of money if you are able to monopolize your project.

In the next chapter, we will talk about how you can use the knowledge you gained from previous project chapters to create a simple robot. We will not be writing the code or designing the circuits for you. Instead we will show you how to put the pieces you have learned in the book...
