AB Bluetooth Remote Shutter For Android and iOS Review

I 100% agree with you, and a great safety warning. Glad that situation did not end as badly as it could have. The Pi, Arduino and relay are in a sensible electronics enclosure, with good cabling, glands and cable strain relief, for the control wire, 5VDC in and wired ethernet. There is no onboard wifi, and the mains power point is some distance from the Pi. From the box and manual here are the supported devices tested and proven to actually worked. According to the manual, the remote shutter should work or compatible with Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean) operating system or higher and with iOS 6.0 or higher version. Here’s a list of Andriod and iOS devices that are compatible with ASHUTB Bluetooth remote shutter: It turns out that the iOS buttons sends Volume Up (key 123) whereas the Android button sends Enter (key 36).

It's pretty easy to set keyboard shortcuts in the GUI- but how do we do it on the command line? Well, you can't. There's no way to tell a shell to run a program when a specific key has been pressed.

I bought a "Bluetooth Remote Shutter". I'm able to connect and trust it from an RPI running Jessie Stretch.
