Hello, I would like to configure the AMB 82 mini to function as a USB keyboard input device. However, upon reviewing the SDK, I noticed that the USB Device section seems to only offer interfaces related to a mouse. Could you please advise whether the AMB 82 mini can be used as a keyboard, or if it’s possible to expand the USB Device support to include additional functionalities? This feature is essential for my project. I know it is achievable with the ESP32, and I am considering using the more extensible AMB 82 mini as a replacement for the ESP32, which would open up greater possibilities for my engineering work.
