My school project is in need of a way to take photo through a Smartphone controlled by an arduino card....
Until now I only controlled the card itself with the smartphone. But right now I need to send a command to the phone to trigger the camera to take a photo.
I tried with an app inventor program but as I never controlled a Smartphone with arduino. Frankly I don't even know what to put in my program line...
And so I require your assistance please !
It can be done using a Bluetooth device that supports the HID profile.
I know it can be done with one of these:
It appears you can flash RN42 firmware on a regular HC-05 to get the HID functionality, but I've never tried.

I think I need to be more specific.
My project is to program and make a 3D scanner that will take photos of an object through a smartphones that will be made into a 3D model by another program so it can be printed later on.
As for right now I handled most of the other part and I just need a method for my card to command the smartphone to take a photo using a bluetooth connection.
What I'm asking is what kind of commanf I should send via bluetooth to get an appinventor app to take a photo.
Thanks for your help.
