Teacher needed help with an idea

Post by Hotshot7997 »

Hello everyone!

Below is the link to a great prank but i want to make that into a great tool for a Lab teacher as myself.

https://learn.adafruit.com/trinket-usb- ... nk-example

I would like to use something like this but not to prank but to help login to computers. I am a teacher and have to login to 60 computers in my lab. I was originally looking into Autorun USBs to run a batch file but for a while now Windows stopped their auto run on their PC's. Can you help me code the Ctrl ALT DEL the username and password for just a click of a button please? of course your would have to code a tab in there to go between the unsername field and password. Please and thank you this would help me sooooo much and if it all works i can buy a few more for my school for the other lab teachers to use.

The ATTiny85 has enough horsepower for this application, but the USB interface is kind of a hack.
I'd prefer to use something like a Teensy 2.0, that has an ATMega32u4 and hardware USB.
Adafruit has a library for USB keyboard (somewhere).
It's just a question of throwing in the key sequences and making sure that there is enough delay that none of the PCs miss anything.

@Bel

Yes they are but i am not admin of the network or server i just teach there.


@Renate

So the that makes sense about the delay. If the computer is slow it will cause more of a problem than a solution. I think i'll just forget the idea. Ive been there and done that with Batch files in the past and its horrible.
