IR-Controlled Car Garage

Aim

To create a garage for toy cars that opens/closes with an IR remote.

Problem statement

Design an IR-controlled car garage system where a user can remotely navigate a car into a designated parking space using infrared signals. Implement obstacle detection and avoidance mechanisms to ensure safe parking, and incorporate features like automated door opening/closing upon successful parking.

Material used

Input: TSOP sensor (TV remote sensor)
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board
Output: Servo motor
Battery: 5V Lithium-ion rechargeable battery

Component description
TSOP Sensor

The function of TSOP Sensor is to Read TV Remote Signal.

Servo Motor

Servo motor is used to open and close the garage gate.

TinkerSpace Brain Board

TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is tis to monitor TSOP Sensor and Servo motor.

Battery

5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project

Working description

Case 1: When the open command is received from the remote. The brain board oscilates the servo motor to 90 Degree. 

Case 2: When the close command is received from the remote. The brain board oscilates the servo motor to 0 Degree.
