Pico W HID Typing System

Overview

This project harnesses the power of the Raspberry Pi Pico W to operate a human interface device (HID) that types out text input from a web interface in a human-like manner. It showcases how the Pico W can be used for network communication and real HID operations through USB.

Features

• WiFi Connectivity: Automatically connects to a specified WiFi network using environment variables for credentials.
• HTTP Server: Runs a web server that handles GET and POST requests, allowing users to interact with the device via a web page.
• Human-like Typing: Types on a USB keyboard with variable speed and accuracy to mimic human typing, including intentional typos and corrections.

Setup and Installation

Hardware Requirements

• Raspberry Pi Pico W

Software Requirements

• MU Editor
• CircuitPython
• Install the required libraries ( adafruit_hid, adafruit_httpserver ) Adafruit CircuitPython Libraries

Wifi Configuration

• update settings.toml with your wifi credentials

Installation

1. Clone this repository: git clone
2. copy the contents to your Pico W
3. Install the required libraries by copying them to the lib folder on the Pico W.
4. Open the code.py file in the MU Editor and run the code on the Pico W.

Usage

1. Connect the Pico W to a computer using a USB cable.

2. Open a web browser and navigate to the IP address of the Pico W (e.g., http://).

3. Use the web interface to enter text that you want the Pico W to type out.

4. Watch as the Pico W types out the text after a 5-second delay.
