Skip annoying music with the skip button.

Indeed, it is very ugly.

Inspired by Bitlair's skip button project, but with major differences:

• 2,4 GHz instead of 433 MHz, because nRF24L01+ modules are so easy to use :-)
• Capacitor instead of transistor logic to keep the arduino running long enough.
• For now, just a button for skipping, no volume control.
• Optiboot boot loader instead of a custom one.
• Uglier case, uglier button.

Software:

• Daemon and button: https://github.com/Juerd/rf24skip
• Receiver: https://github.com/Juerd/rf24server

See also the README files in the Git repositories.

Suggested changes for those who feel like hacking on this:

• Bare atmega instead of complete arduino
• Better case
• Better button
• More buttons
  • Volume control
  • Play/pause
