Need help spec'ing out phidgets

[actias]

Hi All! I'm working on a project with the following workflow:

1. Detect motion when people walk nearby.
2. Send IR signals to start a few devices. I'll need two due to the span of the room and location of the project.
3. Trigger Halloween, Christmas, etc decorations via relays. Probably about 4 to start.

I've been working on it with Arduino and have a prototype working, but getting cases put together, soldering and bumping the power of the IR LEDs is really time consuming and doesn't feel as modular if I change my mind.

I found Phidgets and I really like the modularity of it better. My question, is what would I need to pull this off?

My current list is:

• VINT Hub
• 4 port relay
• IR Module x 2
• Motion Sensor

But how do I connect the IR modules to the VINT hub so they'll send out the signals when required?

Thanks!

With Phidgets, you'll need a PC or SBC somewhere in the system running your program. The IR Phidgets need to attach to USB - only VINT Phidgets attach to the VINT hub.
