Hi,
Can I use an original Espruino as an HID device?
NOT with usb, but with the hc-05 module?

So you mean Bluetooth HID on Espruino? I'm afraid not.

As I understand it, you can set up the Adafruit Bluefruit modules to do it, but you won't be able to do it with Puck.js's API - it'll be a matter of sending the correct text strings to it to set it up: https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-adafruit-bluefruit-le-uart-friend/hidkeyboard

The examples are all for Arduino, so I'm afraid that while it's possible, it won't exactly be easy :(

The HC-05 can never be used for bluetooth HID - it can only be used as a bluetooth serial port.

It's a little unclear what you want though, because in your topic, you say USB hid, but in the body of your post, you specifically say it's not USB hid you want.
