Programmable USB stick with Bluetooth

Post by cool-rr »

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking how to design my keyboard project. The keyboard will be in 2 separate pieces, one for each hand, and it needs to be connected wirelessly to the computer.

I think that I want to have a USB stick connected to the computer. It'll need to be responsible for (1) communicating with the 2 separate pieces of the keyboard using Bluetooth, (2) processing the keypresses using my custom logic that I'll program into it, and (3) present itself to the computer as standard HID, so there'll be no need for custom drivers.

I've never done such a project before. Does there exist a USB stick that'll allow me to do these 3 items?


Thanks,
Ram.

I don't know of anything that combines all those features in a single piece.

Any Arduino using the ATmega32U4 can implent the HID protocol and pretend to be a keyboard. We don't have anything with two channel bluetooth built in though. You might be able to do something with software serial, but that would take some experimenting.
