i hope so! this was a simple enough project to explain and show you what it can really do. i'm really testing the waters and plan on bringing back my "code with me" series
Hey! Battery researcher here, the charging speed change is because the charging is not at a constant wattage, it can start really quickly if you want it to and in 15 min of the 100kw you'll get more kwh but it will halt the power to save the batteries health
I have had a Teensy HID for years but never thought about using it on android games. Heck you could do all sorts of crazy things with this and screen grabbing using something like the HDMI input module. You *could* automate farming on android video games like Clash of Clans like that.
Don't run the code at the 6:30 mark... there's no delay . When you plug it back in, you'll have a nightmare trying to stop your pico from left-clicking.

Very true, I bricked my Pico after following this example. Couldn't get out of the mouse click so I tried to reset my Pico by running GND and RUN as the doc says and now my Pico is not longer detected or BOOTSEL does nothing, doesn't attach as USB device anymore.
Nice !! Thanks, just modded this to move mouse back & forth .... so I never go 'inactive' on Skype for Business ... regardless if i'm "working" or not :)
I can, the implementation to keyboard and gamepad is very similar to the mouse, i've been testing the waters with these pico videos too see the interest of a coding series.
I have a quick challenge for you. I have a Raspberry Pi Zero and Pico W, both of which I am trying to setup as a HID KB. I wish to set them up to enter the FW pwd on a Mac Mini (server in a rack) after a reboot, I wish to remote to the Pi and run a remote script that enter the FW pwd so the machine can continue to the desktop, both are not detected at boot.
maybe get that Pico talking with Home Assistant? Or maybe have it connecting to a PiKVM instance and switching inputs on the physical KVM and collecting regular screenshots of each machine.
Fantastic video, I adapted this to work with Pokemon GO (I wanted it to do the raid tapping for me with an on/off switch) I successfully made it, but alas Pokemon Go seems to block use of external HID Devices, the pointer sits middle of screen not at y=400 and does not click/tap, just thought I would put this here for anyone who had the same idea. Shame they block it. :/
i have a flight yoke system and all the mod upgrades show a different module to use to smooth out the dead spot and to give it more sensitivity, rpi pi pico was $4 about 10 times cheaper and has way more power but i only need it to run 2 potentiometers as a USB HID, I kind of get the circuit python would need to have import hid & import digital io but what other libraries and what would the code to have the values read so pc can then be configured in the joystick setup.i know it has way more power and seems like a waste to run 2 pots, so maybe later i can learn more and add some instruments and more buttons etc to create a more realistic cockpit dash
This is great! Thank you for you videos. For a project I'm working on I need the mouse to click on a specific point in the screen (for a known screen size). Can you use this library to en to enter an absolute position?
This gives me an idea on how to use the Pico as a keyboard controller. I want to take the keyboard from a defunct laptop and make a usb keyboard out of it.
Great video, thank you. I programmed on a Linux laptop and plugging it into Windows, it all worked. Plugging it back into Linux, the Pico can not talk to Thonny and throws out errors. Is this due to different OS
Hey, I looking for a way to press various size buttons most small "these are external button" through Bluetooth preferably do to my level of injury I cannot use my hands. restricted HID or voice, any ideas?
The pointer for the mouse spawned in the middle of the Android's screen; in the code, Don added a move statement to move that pointer along the Y axis (X being horizontal, Y being vertical) by +400 pixels. To go down the screen or to the right is a positive value, to go up or left is a negative. I imagine Don experimented a bit to find the correct value (in this case 400).
WARNING : This is a cool video to watch, very dangerous to code sample to run on your pico. I bricked my Pico after following this example. Couldn't get out of the mouse click loop as the time delay is too short to stop the program, so I tried to reset my Pico by running GND and RUN(followed official doc) and now my Pico is not longer detected as USB mode or BOOTSEL does nothing, doesn't attach as USB device anymore
I was going to say that it's stupid to use such powerful uC for such a primitive task that arduino pro micro can do, but then I remembered that original pro micro from sparkfun costs like $20 and pico costs $4
Do you know how to use the current time of the host? For example, if Pico is connected to a smartphone, the pico pi uses the exact time of that smartphone.
Awesome videos sir Can i make opencv stuff using rppico like grabbing images from smartphone through usb and doing image processing on that image and making actions like clicking
I like your videos - so inspiring! Already subscribed. But I have a question for you. I started with Raspi and looking to make a project with an external screen [already got one]. I'm interested to make something similar to LaMetric but simple, display time, subscriber counts, social media followers, and all of that as a carousel. Do you have some tips for that or could you point me into some ready project for that? Or maybe you have something like that in mind and ready as video tutorial :) Thanks!
@@NovaspiritTech those are extremely tiny ;( I should say more. I’ve been thinking about normal lcd touch screen. There is one from raspi but also plenty of them available on AliExpress. I’ve got one with 1024x620 resolution. Problem is if there is some ready library that could help with that but couldn’t find active project. Other idea is displaying in a web stats but not that nice option and too much stuff in background that doesn’t need to be there. But simple timer, YT, TW, Insta stats display that is perfect option or even something more. I thought if you now something about active project/repository with even similar way to stats dashboard or similar to one you did for hardware dashboard [for pc].
Hi. Tried installing CircuitPython 6.2.0 for the Pico as you direct, it installs but then I just get a folder appear with 2 folders (.fvseventsd) (lib) and our files listed. Cannot connect to Thonny from the Pico. Cannot seem to find a DL link for the Beta 1 version you used. Nuked the memory and could connect, tried reinstalling circuitpython and the same problem. Any suggestions??
Can I use adafruits hid library with micropython. I really appriciate if somebody answers because I would like to connect a mfrc522 and its class wrote for micropython I really like to use the sensors library with the usb_hid library.
I will say I hate you. I had to go out and get a pico now. I was like I'll wait for a cool project. Cool project. Go online and ordered 1. Thanks man 😑.
I predict that your video will launch many creative HID projects around the world! Great job!
i hope so! this was a simple enough project to explain and show you what it can really do. i'm really testing the waters and plan on bringing back my "code with me" series
@@NovaspiritTech I’m teaching myself python right now, I would love to see that series!
@@NovaspiritTech I look forward to that. I'm ordering my Pico right now.
Bring it back
Got 2 on order. Can not wait to try this out.
Thanks for this video, friend came to me with a HID project and couldn't find anything for the Pico without using C. Now I can actually start work.

why don't you enter the pico in storage mode? is it possible?
I'm going to teach my kid how to use the Pico using this video :) Thank you dude
Great example Don! I love your tutorials.
Just like diamond cuts diamond, programming beats programming, Super!
Thanks for this example. I just started in Micros after normal raspis and this helps.
Nice !! Thanks, just modded this to move mouse back & forth .... so I never go 'inactive' on Skype for Business ... regardless if i'm "working" or not :)
Haha your so clever 😂
you could have just set it to never update your status inactivity and disable your computer from sleeping :P
@@purzifal except when these things are controlled by your corporate IT department 🤫
Fridays video will be for mouse juggler with source code
I absolutely loved this! Thank you! More of this kind, please.
I am loving your raspberry pi pico videos!
The funny thing is that you can just long press the red button and that is actually intended to work like that
Great video 😀 liked the detailed explanation of the code 😀
Teaching computers how to press their own mouse buttons. Skynet thanks you for your contribution towards the Singularity! ;-)
Loved seeing this video and look forward to more little projects with the pico like this!
me tooo!! any thoughts on what i should do next?
@@gamertron0882 yes but you will need a lightning cable to usb for connection
@@NovaspiritTech yes I know now but thank you!
Nice video, I know what i'll be trying later today!
I can't wait for you to go to Cape Canaveral and launch a SpaceX with a Pico from your car.
Dude you bring some of the best videos
Great Video. Will you be going into HID keyboard or game pad?
I can, the implementation to keyboard and gamepad is very similar to the mouse, i've been testing the waters with these pico videos too see the interest of a coding series.
Pi pico as password manager
Pi pico as 2FA
Unfortunately, Pico hasn't wireless interfaces or second USB
@@Spy17wolf easy fix, put it on a bread board with a bunch of other components and if your willing to put in the time you could
using pico someone with disablities can easily create their hid device with watching your video as a starting point.

for home assistant, i would recommend using esp8266 instead since it has wifi. but yes for the PiKVM switching board switch.
Great job on this!
This looks cool!!
Really enjoyed watching this video, you explained it really well, thanks
I will buy raspberry pi pico because this video. Thanks
Exactly what I was looking to do (Just a different game :) )
How would you add a rheostat to adjust the speed of clicking?
Fantastic video, I adapted this to work with Pokemon GO (I wanted it to do the raid tapping for me with an on/off switch) I successfully made it, but alas Pokemon Go seems to block use of external HID Devices, the pointer sits middle of screen not at y=400 and does not click/tap, just thought I would put this here for anyone who had the same idea. Shame they block it. :/
Did you try it with a normal bluetooth mouse first?
@@cowrevenge Didn't need to as the tapper worked with other apps. So it worked, just not in Pokemon Go.

Thanks for sharing, this is freaking cool.
Thx for the video. I'm trying to do something similar but need fhe ability to swipe. Trying to make an auto clicker to grab gig jobs.
This looks great ! Thanks ! Can u make a video about the programmable I/O in raspberry pi pico
click -= 1 use is better than click = click -1 when it comes to micro controllers, the less characters you type the more you can program
Surely programming the Pico to swipe right on Tinder would be a popular little project? 😂
😂
Great video, as always!
Hey thanks for the video Don its making me want to grab a pico an give somethings a try!
what is HID means?
human interface device i.e. mouse / keyboard / gamepad
This is great! Thank you for you videos. For a project I'm working on I need the mouse to click on a specific point in the screen (for a known screen size). Can you use this library to en to enter an absolute position?
Hi! Is there a way to do what you did, but with Micropython?
This is seriously awesome.
Wow very nice work man ❤️❤️
That was actually fun to watch
Is there any way to read a number on screen than click n stop
Great project! Thanks!
Make sure to use
adafruit-circuitpython-raspberry_pi_pico-en_US-6.2.0-beta.1.uf2
Thonny seems not to be working with newer versions of it

Great video, I am curious why the while loop was used over range() loop?
Wondering the same thing
I set up a Raspberry Pi 4 with raspian and it shows as a HID joystick in my PC. What's the best way to send python scripts to it?
hello, I want to ask if circuitpython can detect the size of the screen, so I could be more easy to determine the position of the mouse?
What was the cable you used to connect the pico to your phone? Was that an OTG cable?
Great Video. Thank you a lot.
Am wondering how does the mouse know where to click
The pointer for the mouse spawned in the middle of the Android's screen; in the code, Don added a move statement to move that pointer along the Y axis (X being horizontal, Y being vertical) by +400 pixels. To go down the screen or to the right is a positive value, to go up or left is a negative. I imagine Don experimented a bit to find the correct value (in this case 400).
Will this work with iPhone ios 13 or ios 14? iOS 13 and 14 allow usb mouse to be connected to iphone - i think.
I have this error:
ValueError: incompatible .mpy file

what is the command for specifically the right ALT key?
Thank you so much for this video
GREAT VIDEO !!! couldyou just increase font size or decrease video resolution so there is less empty space. Thanks Don
next time i will increase the DPI to 200%
is it possible to create something similar just for a ps4 controller ?
Is there any IDE like thonny that you can run on an android phone to code for, and then push to, the pico?
Do you know how to use the current time of the host? For example, if Pico is connected to a smartphone, the pico pi uses the exact time of that smartphone.
Now I am gonna include RPi_Pico in my HackerGear! I see that it is easy to program it for HID attacks!
Can think of soo many games to use this on.
Awesome videos sir
Can i make opencv stuff using rppico like grabbing images from smartphone through usb and doing image processing on that image and making actions like clicking
Great video! Does anyone know how to stop the pico mounting a drive when using CircuitPython to create an auto clicker?
I followed your guide, seem that the pico dosen't load the adafruit hid module, what can I have done wrong ?

Do you have any customization?
I made a video of the entire desktop setup I'm using. On my page
