Anyone know of a good remote page turner
I have a new kobo forma that I love, but because my hands shake I wish I could find a page turner. Then I could set my reader in a stand and just click away. Anyone know of something that can do this?
Thank you |

I don't know of any way to do it on a kobo. It can be done on an android ereader like an Onyx.

There is such device in Korea (this text is in Polish, please do use translator to read if needed): http://cyfranek.booklikes.com/post/1...o-zmiany-stron. But it's not for Kobo.

It's remote control which work with Crema - Korean e-readers. Latest one - Crema Soundup is described. It looks nice, works fine, but unfortunately I'm not sure if user can switch into English and use side-loaded EPUBs with this remote control. Take a look here: https://youtu.be/9jpOI7Vqu5w

I cant see how that would work with the Clara since it has No BluTooth. But Possible it Will work with the Kindle PW4 since it Does have BluTooth.
Cool device.. Price in US$ |

BT on the PW4 is only for Audible or Voice interface? Different protocol.
Or else people would be able to use a BT keyboard. |

Seems like it'd be a fairly simple project for someone looking to play with an Arduino, Raspberry Pie, or just a simple low cost single chip AVR or PIC processor coupled to a servo and stylus mounted on a simple arm or just a servo horn. Extra points for USB \battery powered, a clip that fastens the whole thing to the back or base of a reader and a nicely debounced pushbutton on the box or on a remote shutter release cable.(electronic versions can be found cheap on ebay and the like -think I paid about $3 for my Olympus.)

What about a computer as page turner? Of course, you can put the computer aside and use a bluetooth keyboard after everything is ready.
For this to work, however, you will need to install koreader on your device, enable ssh access and install this little program: https://github.com/wesley6j/kobo_uti...aster/pageturn |
