Create a Smartphone Controlled Garage Door Opener
If you have an old garage door, you probably have a bunch of nasty large remote controls. If you prefer something more elegant ( and safer ), Make will show you how to create a garage door opener that you can control with your smartphone.
With your smart phone garage door remote control, you can easily provide access to multiple vehicles and keep them safe without spending too much money. The Make project uses a single development board called Particle Core that plugs directly into the opener. It’s simple and surprisingly easy to build. We’ve already talked about a similar project , but Make’s is a little simpler and easy to work with.
