IR communication between PICs

Original Assignment

Two PICs wired together can talk to each other using RS-232. Instead of wiring them together, we can use infrared transceivers so they communicate by IR. The goal of this project is to demonstrate bidirectional communication between two PICs using 38 kHz IR communication. Optional: show that these PICs can also receive data from a standard TV remote.

Overview

The Overview is your rewritten version that clearly indicates what the page is about (to future students accessing the page) and 
should also include links to other good web sources of information on this topic

Circuit

The Circuit shows a professional-looking circuit diagram including part numbers and where they can be obtained (and, where helpful, a photo of a neatly wired implementation of the circuit)

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,

Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore —

While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,

As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

"'Tis some visiter," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door —

Only this and nothing more."

Code

Code gives a listing of the liberally commented code, which should otherwise be as simple as possible (do not have extraneous lines of
code that don't relate directly to the objective of the page).
