Sure, here's an example code that demonstrates how to use 8 keyboard switches
connected to the GPIO pins of a Raspberry Pi Pico W to send keyboard keystrokes via
Bluetooth using the `ble_hid` library:
```python
import machine
import ble_hid
from machine import Pin, Timer
In this example, we first initialize the Bluetooth subsystem using `ble.init()` and
create a Bluetooth HID keyboard using `ble_hid.Keyboard()`. We then define 8
keyswitch pins and a dictionary of key codes for each keyswitch. When a keyswitch
is pressed, we send a key press event for the corresponding key code, and then wait
for 100 milliseconds before sending a key release event.
Note that you will need to install the `machine` and `ble_hid` libraries on your
Raspberry Pi Pico W before running this code. You can do this by downloading and
installing the MicroPython firmware for the Pico W, which includes these libraries
by default.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions or need further
assistance.
