The Anavi Infrared pHAT is an add-on that converts your Raspberry Pi into a powerful IR remote control and brings your old TV, HiFi or air conditioning unit to the Internet of Things (IoT) era!

Getting started is easy and no soldering is required. Just attach the Infrared pHAT to a Raspberry Pi and follow the steps from the user manual. Furthermore, for interactivity and programmability, Anavi Infrared pHAT supports sensor modules for temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and light

Free and open-source examples of applications written in Python and the C programming language are available at GitHub.

Project Ideas

  • Controlling the air conditioning and making it more energy-efficient from a Raspberry Pi
  • Replacing the remote control of TV and HiFi systems with Raspberry Pi
  • Bringing life back to other old consumer electronic devices with infrared remote controls and converting them into Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Creating a weather station for monitoring temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and light
  • Integration with Alexa or Google Assistant to interact with home appliances by voice
  • Integration with Home Assistant, openHAB or other popular open-source software systems for home automation to easily interact with them from your smartphone, tablet, or laptop

Can I control...

  • My TV and HiFi? Yes, with the open-source software LIRC, you can scan the remote control of your TV and/or HiFi and control the device through your Raspberry Pi with this HAT.
  • My Air Conditioning? Yes, although air conditioning remote controls are much more sophisticated you can still scan them and control the air conditioning with Anavi Infrared pHAT. The user’s manual features an example of how to configure LIRC to turn on and off an air conditioner.

Features

  • 2x 5mm IR transmitters (IR LEDs)
  • IR receiver (IR photo sensor)
  • Slots for up to 3 plug and play I2C sensors, compatible with:
    • HTU21D sensor for temperature and humidity
    • BMP180 sensor for barometric pressure
    • BH1750 sensor for light
    • You may also attach any other I2C sensors, but you will have to take care of their software integration.
  • UART pins for debugging
  • Compatible with any 40-pin Raspberry Pi
