Take Control

Backlit Control Pads
The BlueBoard has four backlit control pads with an additional LED that lights when the pad is active, letting you know which control is on.
Bluetooth
Because the BlueBoard communicates with your device via Bluetooth, it leaves the connector free for use with other accessories.
