Hi, im making a H shifter and am looking for a way to make a arduino push button look like a keyboard button - exactly like this, can you send me the code?
i setted the circuit up and tried for the first time using notepad then saw that when ı press the key it send to computer several times...like i wanted to type "hey" it come out like "hhhhhheeeeeyyyyyyy" .....I dont know how to fix it.please help!!!!
@josekiamora You have to deb ounce it! Basically it is sending a letter for the whole time you press the key. It's hard to explain, but look up debouncing for buttons.
Not as fun, and it would require changes on the computer. Doing it this way it really is just like a hardware keyboard: plug it in, the computer says "oh, I have a new keyboard" and it just works.
An alternative to this could be the arduino simply sending data through the virtual serial port to the computer to be received by a program that would then simulate key presses, But it wouldn't be that fun that way would it? :P
Thanks Jon for letting me use this Arduino keyboard adapter during my presentation last week. It provided a quick and easy way to connect my Arduino-powered shirt (wind-cheater) to Linux.
How do you do this? And can you do this with the mouse to?

Oh...Well for Such low level things, It might not work, But it would work for PC Games and such.

Or the other way would be like installing a driver for the "Keyboard" Also, This could cause keyboard Conflicts, Who knows?
But agreed, It isn't as fun that way :P
