Here’s a DIY, potrable version of the USB IR Toy. It runs the same firmware and bootloader as the IR Toy, but has a few changes:
- smaller than the original USB IR Toy
- full integration in a tiny case
- four IR LEDs for increased range
- it can be powered with a 9V battery, making it independent of the computer
