where they figured out that you could use this to actually transport things from one village to another in Africa,

Okay. So, you know, again, what is interesting here is that Matt found this module that lets Arduino process TV signals,
好。有趣的是，Matt找到了一个模块，可以让Arduino处理电视信号，
he found some code written by somebody else that generates infrared signals for the TV,
同时他还找到了别人写的一些代码，这些代码可以向电视传送红外信号，
put it together and then created this great project.
