Classic Bluetooth HID Numpad Remapping Keys

Open gregor202 opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Hello,

I want to remap a classic Bluetooth HID Keyboard, but as the Seeed Studio Xiao nRF52840 only supports BLE i would like to know which other hardware i should look for to get this function (in the future)?

I'm not currently working on making Bluetooth Classic work so I can't really recommend anything.

Possible candidates are the Pico W and ESP32 boards.

This could be done with a combination of the regular usb hid remapper and a bt adapter that supports hid mode like the DBT120. Don't use the DBT120 though, it's a royal pain in the butt. Even when you get it to work once, a lot of the time it does not want to pair again to it for some reason. Somethin like an orange pi zero 3 would be pretty cheap and reliable to do what you need to do. Since it can emulate a usb keyboard / mouse when you connect it to a pc from its usb c port.

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions! I will try using a Raspberry Pi Zero (easier to get locally) to handle the key remapping for my Numpad. I will come back how it worked out...
