Free IR Tv Remote Control Universal

Back in the good ol' days, all you needed to enjoy your television was its bundled remote… and the remote for your cable… oh, and the remote for your surround system. OK, so maybe those weren't the "good ol' days." Fast-forward to the present: We can now use a single smartphone to control our television and cable box.

But in some cases the old smartphones don't match up with New technology. This is especially true if you have a smartphon that works via Wi-Fi and hardware that relies on infrared communication. In these situations, you'll often find a little piece of gear called an IR blaster.

What is an IR blaster, and how does it work?

An infrared blaster (IR sounds better and less techy) is a gadget that accepts some sort of input from your remote and "blasts" it via infrared to the IR-compatible device you're trying to control. One common example is with some smart remotes, like the Logitech Harmony Elite.
