Hey, I was wanting to make and IR remote for a circuit, and I was wondering how to go about doing it...
basically the remote has 10 buttons each button does something
eg 1 turns on 1 thing 2 turns on another and 3 turns on both
umm... not sure what else to say... if I haven't been clear enough just ask what other info you need.

Do you want the remote control or a sensor?

They sell IR modules that will do the difficult part and give you serial data out for a modulated IR signal. You then have to read the serial data and decode it.

Well basically I just want it to be as simple as a remote for a tv and the reciever just needs to know what to apply power to

You need something like a Vishay TSOP series IR receiver and a microcrontroller.

Here's an example at RF using DTMF. Simply modify it with IR transmitter and receiver modules.
