iPhone Camera shutter control

[Henry Wong]

Hello,

I would like to ask how to control the shutter of iPhone camera with nRF51822? Does Nordic provide that kinds of application? Thanks!

If there is an API for iOS apps to control the shutter, I believe this should be possible to do by implementing your own custom service. However, we don't have any particular example showing this application.

Thanks for your reply! I find the shutter can be controlled Volume+ of iPhone. Is it possible of using Bluetooth HID profile to control the Volume+? Can the Nordic's nRFready Desktop 2 or nRFready Smart Remote 2 hep to do that?

Any BLE HID device should be able to send any key press as long as the report maps are set up correctly. The Smart Remote 2 has a Volume + button that sends this key press as a BLE HID packet, so if iOS interprets this as a shutter button click, I guess it should be fine.
