Bluetooth Control Remoto Universal
Aquarium Morris
Most controllers I have seen on the Play Store have a fixed layout, so if you wanted a customized remote you had to program it yourself. With my app you can drag and drop UI elements on the screen, change size, color and much more. It has full multitouch and 8 save slots for controller layouts. You can basically control every Arduino project with this.
The app is programmed using Processing for Android, I made the user interface and multitouch handling from scratch in about 1200 lines of code. Only the Bluetooth communication makes use of a library.
This looks nice. Thank you for sharing. Once ? was tried modify this code GitHub - trevorshannon/ArduinoColor: A simplified version of the Color Namer app from Katie Dektar ( =com.color.colornamer&hl=en) for demonstrating Android-Arduino communication with RGB LEDs in order to work with bluetooth. But I am just new to coding, Can you include RGB color chooser like this one. This one looks good and easy to select color.
Thanks, the link is fixed.
Bluetooth is very complicated, even with Processing as a development environment.
If you are completely new to Android programming I would recommend you to start with something easy.
I learned a lot from this blog post: -basics-bluetooth-android.html
This fully backlit remote can control eight devices and has all the important buttons you need, including three activity controls that allow you to group devices together to watch a movie, listen to music, or watch TV. The layout is clean, albeit somewhat generic-looking, and the buttons are fairly large.
The programming process is old-school, though: You have to manually input codes for your different AV devices and then teach the remote any functions that are missing or executing incorrectly. These steps are not as quick or intuitive as using an app, and the owner manual is not as clear and concise as it could be. But at the end of the process, this remote should be able to do most everything you need it to.
If, on the other hand, your home-entertainment system is built around an AV receiver and multiple source components, and sitting down to watch a movie or play a video game requires shuffling among several remotes to switch inputs and control multiple components simultaneously, a universal remote is exactly what you need.
To test each remote, I program it to control two different AV systems in my home: One is a more basic living-room setup with a Hisense TV, a Polk soundbar, and an Apple TV 4K media player. The second is a more complex home-theater system with an LG TV, an Onkyo AV receiver, an Oppo Ultra HD Blu-ray player, a Chromecast with Google TV, and an Xbox One X. The equipment consists of a mix of traditional IR devices and Bluetooth devices. During my testing, I live with each remote for a while to see how intuitive and reliable it is to use on a daily basis.
The remote communicates with the app via Bluetooth, so the first step in the setup process is to pair the two. Next you add the devices you want to control by choosing from a list of preloaded devices or entering the manufacturer and device name. Sofabaton claims that its code database includes over 60,000 devices and 6,000 brands. The software automatically (and wirelessly) updates the remote with the proper control codes after you add each new device.
I loaded all of my gear from both of my AV systems in just a few minutes, since all of my devices were in the Sofabaton database. At this point, the remote was able to execute most of the basic commands I needed for my devices.
It has all the necessary buttons but no customizable device screen. This Insignia remote looks like your standard stock remote, with a whole lotta buttons taking up every bit of the front-panel real estate. Thankfully, the button layout is logical, with core functions such as volume, channel, mute, home, menu, back, exit, and navigation grouped together near the center. And the buttons are large and decently spaced.
The remote is longer and less contoured than the Sofabaton U2, and I had more trouble reaching all the buttons with my thumb without having to shift the remote around in my hand. But the full backlighting is a welcome addition. The remote requires two AA batteries (not included).
It controls only IR-based equipment. That means it needs line-of-sight with all your gear. We found the IR window to be sufficiently wide to ensure that commands execute reliably. If you want to hide your gear away in a cabinet, you need to pick up an IR repeater kit, as well.
Because this Insignia remote does not support Bluetooth devices, I could not program it to control my Bluetooth-based Google Chromecast, but I was able to use it to control all the other components in my system.
The setup process takes place on the remote itself. Instead of the app-based approach you get with our top pick, this Insignia remote requires that you either manually put it in setup mode and punch in codes to add your devices or initiate an automatic code search for each device button. Either way works, but be prepared to jump back and forth a lot between the remote and the supplied setup pamphlets to follow the instructions.
At CES 2024, One For All highlighted the $60 Smart Control Pro, a fully backlit universal remote that can control up to six devices. There are three activity buttons, as well as direct buttons to switch between devices and to launch the Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, and YouTube apps. This remote offers voice control for Google or Android TV media players, and you can set up the remote using the My Nevo app.
Universal Remote Control (the company) used to offer a variety of good DIY remotes, but it now focuses on the professional-installation market. You may be able to find some older DIY URC remotes online, but at elevated prices.

In electronics, a remote control (also known as a remote or clicker[1]) is an electronic device used to operate another device from a distance, usually wirelessly. In consumer electronics, a remote control can be used to operate devices such as a television set, DVD player or other digital home media appliance. A remote control can allow operation of devices that are out of convenient reach for direct operation of controls. They function best when used from a short distance. This is primarily a convenience feature for the user. In some cases, remote controls allow a person to operate a device that they otherwise would not be able to reach, as when a garage door opener is triggered from outside.
Remote controls in the 2000s include Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connectivity, motion sensor-enabled capabilities and voice control.[2][3] Remote controls for 2010s onward Smart TVs may feature a standalone keyboard on the rear side to facilitate typing, and be usable as a pointing device.[4]
By the late 1930s, several radio manufacturers offered remote controls for some of their higher-end models.[13] Most of these were connected to the set being controlled by wires, but the Philco Mystery Control (1939) was a battery-operated low-frequency radio transmitter,[14] thus making it the first wireless remote control for a consumer electronics device. Using pulse-count modulation, this also was the first digital wireless remote control.
The first remote intended to control a television was developed by Zenith Radio Corporation in 1950. The remote, called Lazy Bones,[15] was connected to the television by a wire. A wireless remote control, the Flash-Matic,[15][16] was developed in 1955 by Eugene Polley. It worked by shining a beam of light onto one of four photoelectric cells,[17] but the cell did not distinguish between light from the remote and light from other sources.[18] The Flashmatic also had to be pointed very precisely at one of the sensors in order to work.[18][19]
