Your IR Devices Are Stuck in the Past — This Hub Brings Them Into Your Smart Home
You've built a smart home with Zigbee sensors, smart switches, and automated scenes. But your air conditioner, your TV, your projector, your fan — they still use infrared remote controls. They're not smart. They can't be automated. They can't be controlled remotely. They're the gap in your smart home that no amount of Zigbee devices can fill, because they speak a completely different language: infrared.
The XIAO Smart IR Remote Control Hub is the translator. A compact, intelligent infrared hub powered by the ESP32-C3 core that learns the IR codes from your existing remotes and makes every IR-controlled device in your home automatable, schedulable, and remotely controllable — including through Home Assistant. One device. Every remote. Your entire smart home, finally complete.
One-Touch IR Learning: No Codes to Look Up
The one-touch learning feature is the XIAO IR Hub's most practical capability. Instead of searching online for IR code databases, manually entering hex codes, or hoping your device is in a pre-loaded library, you simply point your existing remote at the hub and press the button you want to learn. The hub captures the IR signal, stores it, and makes it available for automation and remote control. The process takes seconds per button and works with virtually any IR remote — regardless of brand, age, or protocol.
This means you can bring any IR-controlled device into your smart home ecosystem, even obscure or older devices that no smart home platform has ever heard of. If it has a remote, the XIAO IR Hub can learn it.
Haptic Feedback: Confirmation You Can Feel
The haptic feedback feature is a thoughtful design detail that sets the XIAO IR Hub apart from basic IR blasters. When you press a button or complete a learning sequence, the hub provides a subtle tactile vibration — confirming that your input was registered without requiring you to look at a screen or wait for a visual indicator. It's the kind of detail that makes the device feel premium and reliable rather than cheap and uncertain.
ESP32-C3 Core: Open, Powerful, Hackable
The ESP32-C3 is one of the most capable and widely supported microcontrollers in the maker and smart home community. Its use as the core of the XIAO IR Hub means the device is not just a closed appliance — it's an open platform that can be programmed, customised, and integrated with virtually any smart home system. For Home Assistant users in particular, the ESP32-C3's ESPHome compatibility means deep, native integration with your existing automation setup.
The ESP32-C3 supports both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, giving the hub flexible connectivity options and ensuring compatibility with a wide range of smart home platforms and automation frameworks.
Home Assistant Compatible: Deep Integration for Power Users
The XIAO Smart IR Hub is designed with Home Assistant compatibility as a first-class feature. For Home Assistant users, this means the hub can be integrated directly into your automation setup — triggering IR commands as part of complex automations, combining IR control with sensor data, and managing all your IR devices through the same interface as your other smart home devices. This is the level of integration that turns a simple IR blaster into a genuinely powerful smart home component.
