Below is a technical project I want to do. Please help me with every component that might be needed
1. In Our room there's a mitsubishi Split AC. Right now I am using IR Remote, to turn on and off
2. What I want is a small mechanism be developed that would automatically Turn on and Turn off (basically fire the IR command for ON and OFF and temperature setup at 24) every 2 hours.
3.my approach is to use 8266 mcu and some ir reciver to read the remote signls and store them in device then fire them with ir blaster module to turn on and off ac
can you suggest me parts i need like ir sensor module and ir blaster module
ir remote for mitshubishi ac with node mcu

Other than ESP8266, you will require any IR receiver, instead of constantly reading IR data from your remote, just read the data for ON and OFF once. Do it 3 to 4 times to be sure that the data bits are exact same everytime. After that, use NTP server in ESP to know the time. The ESP connects to the internet via its WiFi which needs some wifi router or a mobile Hotspot. The ESP will have a IR blaster connected to it.
Let's say its 8 pm and time for you to sleep
, you can program the ESP to automatically send the ON command to the AC. Additionally, with this exact same setup, you can also use all the other features given on the remote once you copy data bits for all the functions into your ESP8266!
The ESP8266 can also host a local website which you can connect to and then essentially operate your AC from your phone ! The best part is that you can use all androids , windows, linux and iphones because the website works on any device

One important thing to keep in mind is that AC remotes work differently from regular IR remotes. While a normal remote (like for a TV) sends a simple commandâsuch as volume up or powerâan AC remote sends a complete data packet every time you press a button. This packet includes all the current settings like power status, temperature, mode, fan speed, swing position, etc.tej wrote: âThu Jun 19, 2025 1:26 pm Below is a technical project I want to do.

So if you capture and replay an AC remoteâs IR signal to turn the unit ON or OFF, you're not just toggling power. You're also restoring all the other settings that were active at the time of capture. For example, if the AC was set to 24°C, cool mode, and medium fan speed, replaying that signal will reset the AC to those exact settings.
If you want a referance on building such a remote you can refer the following project. https://circuitdigest.com/microcontroll ... te-control
