need help in sending the language status to a serial port

[yaroncor]

Hi
trying to build an arduino device that will read the PC keyboard language status (in a multi language OS) so I need a windows app that will send it to a USB port

can anyone help with this code?

thanks!

To create a Windows application that can read and send the keyboard language status to an Arduino via a USB port, you will need to follow these general steps:

1. Developing the Windows Application:
   • Use a programming language like C# or C++ in Visual Studio to create the Windows application.
   • Use Windows API functions to read the keyboard language status.
   []Communicating with Arduino:
   • Implement a protocol for communication between the Windows application and the Arduino over the USB port.
   []Arduino Side:
   • Develop an Arduino sketch that can receive and interpret the data sent by the Windows application and take appropriate actions based on the keyboard language status. Here is a general outline of how you can approach this project:
     • Start by creating a simple Windows application that can detect the keyboard language status in real-time.
     • Test the application to ensure it can accurately read the keyboard language status.
     • Implement code to send this information to the Arduino over the USB port.
     • Develop the Arduino sketch to receive and process the data sent by the Windows application.
     If you need specific code examples or further guidance on a particular part of this project, feel free to ask! It's recommended to break down the project into smaller tasks and work on each component gradually.
