Automated-Light-Switch

In this project, we created an automated light switch through the use of an ATmega328P, infrared sensor, and motor. The Arduino is programmed entirely through AVR C, and the infrared sensor was custom-made by us. We made a custom PCB of the infrared sensor through KiCAD. The user pushes the power button on an infrared remote. This action is picked up by the infrared sensor and the ATmega328P. The motor activates, flipping the light switch.

Questions

How big is the IR Receiver Module PCB PCB?

It measures 26.2 × 13.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the IR Receiver Module PCB use?

6 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the IR Receiver Module PCB KiCad files?

From the Sumesh128000/Automated-Light-Switch repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is IR Receiver Module PCB.kicad_pcb and its schematic IR Receiver Module PCB.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the IR Receiver Module PCB design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Sumesh128000 before reusing the design.
