Arduino code for keyboard and mouse control of a computer along with optional power control
Here is the Arduino code for an IP-KVM project that I am working on. This code is in the form of a Code::Blocks project that can be opened run to build an uploadable HEX file for an Arduino Pro Micro. The Arduino Pro Micro uses an ATMega32U4 chip, which has a built in USB port that can operate in OTG mode, which then allows it to be used as a keyboard or mouse.

There is a counterpart to this project which is at:
https://github.com/macpczone/keyboard-passthrough
and this other project contains a python file that can be run on another machine, which can then send the keycodes to the Arduino, so that it can pass them onto a machine that is to be controlled with a keyboard or mouse.
Below are the libraries that you will need to build the code:
Arduino HID Project 2.4.4 This is the core HID library that provides the keyboard and mouse support.
LCD Library for Arduino and Chipkit This library supports the 20x4 LCD with an LCM1602 IIC driver chip.
SoftPWM Library This library provides the fading LED, which is just there to show that the code is working.
TimerOne Library This library is just used to provide the interrupt code for the fading LED.
The utils directory also contains some other code that I have written, which are used in the demonstration videos.
Here is an image of the how the Pro Micro is connected:
