    @DrFalken said in IR control of presentations?:

    Hey everyone - i’m looking to run https://revealjs.com/demo/ on MM, in a web browser module. I have a basic MM setup but otherwise a newbie :)

    The idea would be to able to able navigate through the slides with an IR remote (either mimicking keystrokes, or issuing api calls to the revealjs server.

    Does this seem realistic to do? Any pointers on implementation would be very helpful!

    As others have explained, MagicMirror won’t do what you want.

    To solve your need,
    There are presentation wireless “mice” which look like tv remotes which can do what you want, if you are using a computer to display your website on a screen.
    OR
    you could turn each slide of your presentation into a graphic image and load them on a usb stick. Most “smart” tv’s have the ability to display images from a usb stick and will allow you to adjust the settings so you can change pages by clicking on your tv’s remote control.
