Request for help implementing HID protocol in BrailleTouch project #480

Open discapacidad5 opened 1 year ago

discapacidad5 commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to you because I am working on an open-source project called BrailleTouch. Our goal is to create affordable Braille displays for blind and deaf-blind individuals.

We are currently stuck and unable to get the HID Braille to receive information from the screen reader and continue programming. As someone with experience in this area, your expertise could be of great help to our project.

I believe that an open-source Braille display could be incredibly useful and have many benefits for those who are blind and deaf-blind. Your knowledge of the HID protocol could be particularly helpful in implementing the protocol in our Braille display.

Please take a moment to review our project on GitHub at https://github.com/brailletouch. If you're interested in helping, please let me know.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Best regards,

Cergio Monasterio

Dear Youw.

I came across your HIDAPI library for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X while researching how to interface with USB and Bluetooth HID-Class devices. I noticed that you have experience working with the HID protocol, and I was wondering if you could offer some guidance.

Specifically, I am trying to implement HID Braille functionality in my project, which involves sending and receiving Braille input, output, and feature reports. I understand that you have not worked with Braille devices specifically, but I am hoping that your experience with HID will be of use.

I apologize if this request is outside the scope of your work or if you are not available for consultation. I understand that your HIDAPI repository is no longer maintained, but I am hoping that you may still be able to offer some guidance.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best regards,
