With native USB, the Digispark board can act like a keyboard, making it really simple to emulate keyboard presses using the microcontroller. The device takes advantage of the native USB feature of his Digispark board, and a few built-in keyboard shortcuts in Zoom. To solve all these problems, he built a physical mute button to easily toggle the mute option on and off during Zoom calls. Furthermore, when we get called on, we’re desperately trying to give the impression that we’ve been paying attention the entire time, even when we haven’t been.
