ESP32 home automation

[JoJoNL]

 

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to do something that might be impossible, but there are always bigger brains on the internet
I'm just toying around with an ESP32 and I can control it with my phone via bluetooth. I have it setup so it always waits for a connection. The ESP32 controls a fan via PWM. 
Here comes my idea: I have one of those cheap bluetooth media controllers. You can connect you phone to it, again via Bluetooth. Then you can control volume and skip tracks, very basic. When connecting, there's no pin or anything. It just works.

 

Is there a way to have the ESP32 connect to that remote?
So i can just stick that remote somewhere and have that control the ESP32 and, with that, the fan.

I have built a set of ESP32 running Nano framework and it allowed me to use one of them to run a webclient to connect to my server which was also a ESP32 running a restful api. So the values of the thermometer, sonar and a pair of LED and they where sending and receiving data from the server.

The server was running a small webpage on it to so i could read the values and changed the LED on/off state.

 

I mean it work and is dirt cheap automation (like 15$ CAD each) and you do whatever you want. It was just a winter fun project but it very easy to start with. Specially that nano framework allow you to debug in visual studio directly it made everything super fast to make.
