Bluetooth Foot-control Page Turner
Description
Create a foot-controlled page turning system from 3D Printed pieces and an inexpensive wireless add-on keypad. https://youtu.be/DjwS2s4lkRA I've also remixed this for compatibility with a different wireless keypad, so if you have (or can get) that one, have a look: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4835488 NOTE: This solution is intended to be used with one or more manufactured products. UPDATE: I've added a wake(zero-key) button which can be added to the device (shown in picture) so that the zero key can be pressed in order to wake the keypad's Bluetooth transmission if it goes to sleep to save the battery. If you've priced any full-featured Bluetooth foot-control page turners recently, then you'll know why a low cost alternative might be of interest. Here's a device for using a cheap Bluetooth keypad as a foot-operated page turner. Set back to “4” and forward to “+”. This instance is designed to accommodate a popular style of Bluetooth keypad equipped with 4 round feet and having approximate dimensions of 125mmX85mmX18mm (as shown in picture). The holder for the keypad is designed to trap the round feet at its lower end so that the keypad's own weight keeps it from sliding around (also shown in picture). Enough space has been left below "fingers" to apply a rubber or felt foot that will contact the keys. Travel of pedals has been limited by design to prevent damage to the keypad. Pockets may be added (remixed) to accommodate other keypads of slightly different shapes/sizes.
