what adafruit feather do i need ?

[Fruitoftheloop]

i have look at adafruit feather boards for my project but i'am not sure wich one to choose.
let me describe it it in a few lines..
i would like an all-in-one controller with bluetooth and usb to do what ?
the controller would be plugged into the usb of a windows desktop pc and recognized as a hid root device .
i don't have any access to the system of the pc this is a windows pos (point of sale) where i do repetitive task
the purpose is to program macros(a mix of mouse moves an clicks and keystrokes) and to launch them remotely with bluetooth from my
smartphones using MIT app inventor.(https://appinventor.mit.edu/)
all i found so far is example of adafruit used as bluetooth keyboard for android and that is why i'am confused.
you understood this is not what i need..?
maybe the adafruit feather nRF52840 express that has a hid library but is it working with usb on a pc ?
thanks in advance
regards

Not exactly sure what your wanting to use this for specifically. I think more then likely your going to run into more issues then it’s worth. If your just trying to have a specific pos app run automatically why not run it through a windows task on boot up. Even through a smartphone if you need to access the computer you could still remote access in from anywhere. Again not exactly sure what the specific purpose your trying to achieve so hard to say.

as i said before " don't have any access to the system of the pc" there's a proprietary app for work running full screen and you can't minimize it or access any part of the system even ctrl+alt+sup does not work . . i already tried a hack with a usb key and on autorun with Autokey standalone (https://www.autohotkey.com/) but nothing happened .the sytem must be lock against this .all i need is to be able to launch several different macros on demand .i tried to plug a wireless mouse and it work instantly .here's where came the idea to me of a connection to usb recognized a hid root like the mouse i tested ...do you get it?
thanks for the interest in my project .

I understand more now. I wish I could give you more help with programming like your wanting to do but I don’t have experience in Arduinos that way. Hopefully someone else can chime in now with the extra info you gave. I have more experience in having full access to the server or full pc. Wish I could help you out more but good luck with the project will keep following so I can hopefully learn some tricks myself.

Here are some starting points: there are many similar projects in the Learn Guides. Unless the POS computer is remote, could you just connect with it directly, instead of using Bluetooth?

i do have a physical access to the computer ...quote myself:"the controller would be plugged into the usb of a windows desktop pc and recognized as a hid root device"
the remote access would be for the buttons .so no wire no soldering .just the controler plugged to the usb to the pc tower and virtual buttons on my smartphones created by
https://appinventor.mit.edu/ and my phone connected with bluetooth to the controller .The interest in that it would be an all-in-one solution the controller with hid usb capabilities and bluetooth com capabilities.
thanks for the help.
