Hi, I want to make a power point slide changer.
All I want to do is that assign two buttons on arduino, one for forward and another for backwards.
On pressing the forward button, i should be able to move to the next slide in power point and on pressing the backwards button i should be able to go back a slide.
Now I know arudino can send data to the serial port of the pc, but how can I interface the serial port to power point?
Can anyone guide me on this?
By default, Power Point lets you change slides by pressing keys on the keyboard, or by clicking a mouse. The simplest solution would be to use an arduino leonardo to emulate a keyboard or mouse.
