Thanks ... And Thanks!!!!

This is exactly the info I was looking for.

I have been working on a project with my Nerf Lazer Tag guns that involves reading in their codes via IR. This will help me track what is going on with them.

I have been able to read in these codes via an Arduino and VS1838b IR receiver however now I am stuck trying to figure out what to do next. My choices are:

1. Try and use Lirc or something else using the Onion GPIO
2. Keep using the Arduino and send the data to the Onion for parsing

i am new to all of this and self taught so would appreciate any advice or thoughts about what my next step could be.

further info would be that I have an arduino but can only communicate with it via serial
I have the onion omega and expansion dock and would prefer to not have to purchase anything new

Arduino code is below:

#include <IRremote.h>
int input_pin = 2;
IRrecv irrecv(input_pin);
decode_results signals;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
irrecv.enableIRIn();
}
void loop() {
if (irrecv.decode(&signals)) {
if (signals.value == 0x802E6E05) {
Serial.print("SOLO: ");
}
Serial.println(signals.value, HEX);
irrecv.resume(); // get the next signal
}
}
