The IguanaWorks USB IR Transceiver is a simple USB device that can communicate with most home electronics and remote controls via infrared (IR). The transceiver can both send and receive IR codes, and is fully compatible with LIRC under Linux and WinLIRC under windows. Unlike serial devices, the USB transceiver does not require a kernel module, and multiple transceivers can be in use at the same time. Each transceiver can transmit on up to 4 independent channels (dual socket version only). The transmitter is high-power compared to most serial devices, with a range of 10 ft. We support LIRC and WinLIRC. Basic overview and purchasing information available here.
