I am building an RS232 to ESP32 controller so my school's SMART MX boards can be controlled without the IR remotes.
I am building an RS232 to ESP32 controller so my school's SMART MX boards can be controlled without the IR remotes.
SMART Controller PCB Buildout: I designed the PCB from scratch. The SMART MX displays my school district just purchased only have IR remotes with no way to change input, volume, etc. besides getting up and pressing buttons on the screen, which became the job of myself or other students which I do not want to do. This board takes an RS232 serial connection that it outputs and converts it to UART before passing it to an ESP32, where I will write software to connect to the ESP32 with a cell phone, physical remote, bluetooth peripheral, etc.
