## Description

MINDSTORMS Remote BLE is a Chrome extension designed to remotely control Lego Spike Prime or MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor robots through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). It enhances robot control experience by leveraging BLE connectivity to operate the robot remotely from your browser. The extension requires a Python program to be running on the robot brick to facilitate communication. Detailed setup instructions and robot-side scripts are available at the official GitHub repository: https://github.com/antonvh/MINDSTORMS-Rc-BLE-robot-scipts. This extension is ideal for robotics enthusiasts looking for an intuitive and efficient way to interact with their Lego robotics projects.
