Physical mute button for Microsoft Teams using an ATTiny85/Digispark and the Micronucleus bootloader to allow programming with the Arduino IDE
/*
Thanks to Elliotmade for the inspiration on this project
https://elliotmade.com/2020/04/23/physical-mute-button-for-zoom-meetings/
Refactored by HaxNobody to extend functionalty and add comments for my own
understanding
This program will send USB HID keyboard presses to bring the Zoom window into
the foreground and activate microphone and video functions.
* A momentary press on button 1 will toggle mute on or off.
* Press and hold button 1 to activate PTT (Push-to-Talk) functionality.
* A momentary press on button 2 will toggle video on or off.
Unfortunately, exiting a meeting with only key presses is no longer possible in
Zoom, so I have removed that feature.
