Elmore Pedals Extension
Project goal
To develop the "Elmore Pedals Extension," a unique browser extension for Chrome and Safari that connects to a special pedal via Bluetooth. This extension is designed to enhance the learning experience for musical instrument enthusiasts. It allows users to operate supported websites like YouTube hands-free, using the pedal, thus enabling them to focus entirely on their instrument.

Motivation for the project
The project was conceived to solve a common challenge faced by musicians - the need to frequently interrupt their practice to operate instructional videos or music sheets on their computer. By integrating a pedal with a browser extension, we aimed to provide a seamless, uninterrupted learning experience, allowing musicians to stay fully engaged with their instrument.
Challenges
Expansion to macOS, iPadOS and iOS devices via publishing the extension to App Store.
Developing a cross-browser extension compatible with both Chrome and Safari that connects reliably with the pedal via Bluetooth. Continuously updating the extension to enhance compatibility, functionality, and user experience.
