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.
