Some details
The idea of this pedal is to let a guitar player scroll through pages on their digital devices (that support iOS, Android, Mac, and PC platforms) using their feet. It lets musicians turn pages and control hundreds of music apps hands-free.
The music pedal is a Bluetooth 4.0 equipped device. It has a solid aluminum case and an elegant design. The device can be powered by 9V battery or external 9V power supply. It also
has USB 5V output and can charge tablets or phones when powered from an external power supply.We used nRF51822 BLE SoC to provide high working range and low power consumption. He ran a successful campaign on Kickstarter and got positive feedback from influencers who tested the product. The device is currently in mass production and we',re discussing a new version of the device with our client.
