They could have prevented this by wearing hazmat suits to avoid being ionized in the first place.

1 Tbps ??? Or did you mean to say 1 Gbps / 1000 Mbps ?

It actually turned out to be easier than I thought.

The infrared reader (arduino code) is based on

https://github.com/Arduino-IRremote/Arduino-IRremote

The code running on my raspberry pi was written in Java using spring boot which is probably overkill but I am more comfortable with java than python so I used

https://github.com/Fazecast/jSerialComm

to read data from the pi’s usb port and just sent instructions to the unified remote server which does most of the heavy lifting. I used

https://github.com/openhab/openhab-addons/blob/main/bundles/org.openhab.binding.unifiedremote/src/main/java/org/openhab/binding/unifiedremote/internal/UnifiedRemoteConnection.java

as a reference along with some verbose logging on the unified remote server to see what codes needed to be sent over the rest api.

Happy to help you along if you want to give this a go :)

I use it as a media remote for my computer via infrared. IR sensor sends analog data to an arduino which converts it to digital and sends it to a raspberry pi which then invokes commands to control media on my computer by invoking rest apis on a “unified remote” server running on the computer.

Just curious, what about go or rust makes them the logical next choice and not java? What do go or rust do better that java doesn’t?

What would your language of choice have been? And why is java horrible for this scenario? it sounds like a reasonably good choice to me
