[Mr. Lim]

We ran a few tests yesterday which confirm a lot of what others have said regarding IR jamming. We also went through the effort of switching IR receivers with those sensitive to different carrier frequencies.

The receiver on the IR board is sensitive to 38kHz.

We ran an additional board with a receiver sensitive to 36kHz, and another at 56kHz.

What we found was that an IR remote transmission at any of the 3 frequencies was able to jam another at any of the 3 frequencies.

Is anyone else worried that a RoboCoach, by simply holding down a button on a remote, might effectively render a good part of the field "IR-useless?"
