DIY: v2 of the arduino remote control

"you need to go on a diet!"

 

Ok. I agree ;) So, meet the new, thinner arduino remote control. same features, faster display, smaller battery, still Qi charged but it went from over 1" to just about 1/2".

 

Chassis need rework, and that will come next.

 

WHAT THIS IS: a custom built remote control that has a small OLED graphic display, a 'zigbee' data-radio module, some industrial tactile angle buttons, a lipoly battery and Qi recharging coil and circuit. The software is arduino based and the code is mostly stuff I wrote Here, its doing a 'volume control' function and the bargraph shows the current volume level. If you turn the knob on the stereo, this display updates. Similarly, if you use the buttons on this remote, the volume changes on the real stereo system and its display updates. They both stay in sync. This all happens using xbee radios on both the stereo side and the remote control side, both running software I designed and is optimized for the xbee style packet radios.
