ESP32S3 5 Inch Display - USB HID Support

I'm trying to play around with getting the display to act as a device HID keyboard. No matter what I can't get it work and it never shows up as a HID. On closer inspection I noticed the USB port is connected to UART0 which leads to be to believe that its not connected to the USB D+ and USB d- port that's normally a separate port on the esp32-s3 dev kit.


Can you confirm that the USB port on this device is limited just to a serial connection? e.g. Think device can never act a hid device.


Thanks!

    Hello jjtimo, the USB port of this device is only intended for serial connection and does not support HID device functionality. This means that it cannot be used as an HID keyboard or any other HID device, such as a mouse or touch screen.

    Ok thats what I figured. Thanks for the confirmation!

    @Elecrow
    Is this still true with the current version of the CrowPanel devices?
    Can they be used as USB HID devices?

    Hi @ggibson1
    Due to the limited pins of the ESP32 chip, the D+and D - pins are used as serial ports, so the current version does not support USD HID
