Implement HID LampArray Support #120

Open AStellarScene opened 1 year ago

AStellarScene commented 1 year ago

The new Dynamic Lighting feature in Windows 11 was just released. It uses a new standard called HID LampArray. This open standard aims to improve the overall lighting ecosystem for PC peripheral devices. Implementing this new standard into the current HID library would make it much easier to experiment with this new feature. My personal assumption is that almost all CircuitPython HID projects implement some form of RGB LEDs. For example, the Adafruit MacroPad implements many RGB LEDs, and this feature would be particularly useful.

This would be AWESOME! Looks like there's a C++ sample using the Adafruit MacroPad. Sadly, it's not trivial to use yet, at least due to a delayed tinyusb PR.

If this gets enabled via CircuitPython ... Wow!

I don't think we need the tinyusb changes: this looks like standard HID. It only requires a CircuitPython library to be written.
