I wan't to make a HID device (preferably keyboard) using an Arduino.

• Method 1

To me a preferred method would be to develop an actual Windows device driver so it's detected as a keyboard.

• Method 2

At the moment I can have different buttons pressed on the Arduino return different values via serial. Using my current functionality could I write some software layer that could take my serial data and have Windows read it as hid input? If so how would I go about achieving something like this?
