How to receive data on HID device?
3 projects | /r/arduino | 3 May 2023

https://github.com/tcoppex/mbed-ble-hid/blob/master/src/services/HIDGamepadService.cpp , the hid_report_map descriptor needs to be modified. The original input report needs to have a report ID, and then a new section needs to be added as a output or feature report, with its own report ID. This is a bit of a mess to research because there's no real standardization. PlayStation controllers have their own format, Xbox has a different one.
