KY-005 IR Transmitter Module

KY-005 infrared transmitter module is designed to transmit coded infrared signals at a frequency of 38kHz and a wavelength of 940nm. This is outside the spectrum detectable by humans. For standalone projects this module is generally paired with the KY-022 infrared receiver.

With this IR transmitter, the Arduino project is able to transmit command to any IR remote Receiver if you have the right decoder. Well, it will be also easy to make your own IR controller using IR Receiver.
