IR AC Controller

The smart air conditioner controller uses Zigbee connectivity and infrared signals to operate split air-conditioning units controlled by an IR remote. When connected to a compatible smart home gateway and application, it enables supported AC functions to be incorporated into schedules and automation scenarios.
