  • I got it to work by having a python script that waits for specific packets then translates them to keystrokes. Python is compatible with Windows, Mac and of course Linux. The Keyboard library is very interesting and by using Python we can easily make wifi keyboards, controllers, etc. If you have control over the computer and can install python on it, this is easy to do. Here is my github project that shows a real world example. Receive.py is what you should look over. You don't have to use UDP, TCP would be more reliable but if it's just moving slides well then.... Yeah that's up to you lol.
