Can You Put A piece of the mag glass in front of the floppy disk stuff so that all you have to do is rotate the top?

By the real MrDummBumm 1183745813 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveBut it works well!
By Sam Noyoun 1182793262 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveBUT A UNIVERSAL REMOTE WORKS WELL TOO!!!
By RESDEP 1182812756 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removesadly, this works better than most universal remotes :)
By Ohthetemerity 1182844072 Reply Spam [+12] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethanks very education, but can you enhance me the principle behind using that floppy disc?
By Pinoy BigBrother 1182822673 Reply Spam [+5] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removefilters natural light, and only let's through infrared light... So in effect, what you are doing, is making an infrared LED.
By Sam Noyoun 1182824755 Reply Spam [+6] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveA remote control sends out a series of digital IR pulse codes which are programmed specificly to trigger different functions on the television. You would have a better chance of sending a fax by singing happy birthday over the phone. Ill post that one next week!
By atomizer 1182836426 Reply Spam [+4] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeprehistoric TV sets, but I doubt it.
I did a project once where an IR receiving diode connected through a preamp was fed to the computers sound card and we recorded the resulting waveforms - and these were quite complicated for each of the keys (more like morse code- with a sequence of long and short pulses) - we than did the opposite, feeding the output from the computer to an IR LED, being able to control the TV and VCR with prerecorded 'macros'
you know less than you think.

Depending on how you pulse the signal and the frequency codes for a particular television, you can get different effects.

By outrightous 1183173230 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveAnd this wristwatch did exactly the same thing. It's tons of fun messing with people's heads in this way. Once I did this to my cousin while he was playing Grand Theft Auto, damn it was hilarious. I would turn the tv off and as he got up to turn it on, I would beat him to it. He still doesn't know what happened!
