The transmitter 104 modulates infrared light based on the trigger data and transmits it to the remote control interface 109.
The remote control interface 109 consists of an receiver 110 that receives infrared light signals that have been modulated and demodulates them to recover the control codes in the carrier wave. The remote control interface 109 then transmits the control code the electronic device, which then activates the desired function according to the control code.
