I’d like thoughts on whether this project is viable with a Pico W before I set off and hit a brick wall. To be clear, I’m not asking people to do it for me.
I’d like to make a USB to Bluetooth adapter for keyboard strokes. I have a USB volume control knob that emulates keyboard strokes via usb. This currently controls an app on an Android phone. I’d like to do away with the USB cable. The app responds to a real Bluetooth keyboard. So my idea is to plug the USB volume knob into the Pico W and wrote some code to capture the key strokes and re-emit them via the Pico’s Bluetooth interface. Obviously I’ll need a source of power.
Is this a viable project?
Thanks.
