Bluetooth Foot Pedal
Also known as: Page Turn Pedal, Wireless Foot Pedal
A wireless input device operated by foot that connects to tablets, computers, or specialized music-reading hardware via Bluetooth to enable hands-free page turning of digital music scores. Bluetooth foot pedals are particularly valuable for musicians who cannot take their hands off their instrument to turn pages, and for musicians with low vision who use digital scores on tablets. While helpful, they require precise timing and coordination, and accidental presses can cause disruptive jumps to wrong pages during performance.
