This is not strictly a Picaxe project, nor is it finished. It does, however, include a Picaxe, and that part of it is complete, hence its mention here. Wanting IR remote control for an AVR-based project, it occurred to me that using a small Picaxe to receive and decode the IR signal would be...

A draughts sorter (there's useful!) constructed from fischertechnic parts, with a homebrew reflective IR sensor to detect and identify draughts, controlled by a Picaxe-18X on a Picaxe project board (lurking under the red platform at the left-hand side). I've been buying fischertechnik bits on...

For some years I have used PICAXE-18 controllers with Fischertechnik buggies and other elements to support a range of control modules for further education students. The project is described here: http://www.slcworkshop.org.uk/Picaxe/introduction.htm
