Hi all,
I would like to try have Bluetooth support (yeah, big wtf)!

I wonder if there is allready any discussion about it that I can get insights?

For now, all I have is this:

https://github.co...ree/master

(Infact I found this from a non related subject https://github.co...di_library , I was researching about midi support 😬)

I wasn’t thinking of messing about Bluetooth, but that project make me wonder if it would be feasible.

It gets a little more complex if we consider the aos Bluetooth stack, so, if there was allready any discussion about the topic maybe I could understand better the challenge.

My initial idea was of have a hacky support for emulated input (mouse and keyboard), but maybe it could be a start point for the correct behavior. (I would need the hacky approach anyway as maybe we can have scenario without OS, BT joystick? 😁)

Anyway, that is far more than I am capable of, so if anyone has info about the subject could help me to not waste time in the wrong path.

Regards,

TBH, I don't recall anyone planning/working on Bluetooth support before. Maybe other people have some more information on this.

Hi, @deadwood,

I found this:

https://forum.hyp...php?t=4593

It is BT, but usb related.

And this:

https://github.co...hci-driver

As emu68 reference.

For my scenario hacky will be needed anyway, but maybe it can be evolved to something better.

I am thinking of have a time window at boot time to auto pairing devices and save the paired info for persistance.

I don’t have much choices. Raspberry has usb, bt and uart options to interact with.

As usb options i would have tiny usb, cherry usb and maybe aros pi native driver/stack.

I don’t think emu68 has anything in that way.

Does this sounds like a (good) plan?

Regards,

Ps: I will have some trouble to switch between the arm bt to aos bt and for merging usb/bt devices, but that is not my scenario atm.

The fact is I will need input, and I’m using emu68 as the bare metal (arm boot) environment.

I need to choose between the options, as emu68 doesn’t seem to have any arm input (keyboard/mouse) stack.

Suggestions are welcome.
