programmable keyboard (Arduino Pro Micro + USB HOST ) is possible?

How to Use Arduino to Create a Programmable Keyboard?

I want to connect a USB keyboard to my Arduino and then connect my Arduino to my computer via USB so that my Arduino is recognized as a keyboard. This will allow me to remap the keys.

Required Hardware for This Setup:

[Keyboard] -> [Arduino (As Virtual Keyboard)] -> [Computer]

The goal is to achieve this configuration as cheaply as possible. πŸ˜€

  • Arduino Pro Micro, that use the chip atmega32u4 and that can do communication by USB as a virtual keyboard
  • USB HOST board like this to get ANOTHER USB connection to which I can connect the real keyboard.
