This is example code for the MaKey MaKey and Bluetooth Mate for the MaKey MaKey combo. The goal is to make the combination of both boards feel exactly like the MaKey MaKey...but wireless. Set your banana keyboards and play-doh controllers free!
This example code should be taken as just that... example code. It might not work perfectly for everyone's project, but I hope I've made everything it does transparent enough for you to be able to tailor it to your needs.
This code builds on the original MaKey MaKey code, written by Jay Silver, Eric Rosenbaum, and I. I've added two files - makeyMate.cpp and makeyMate.h - which handle all of the communication and setup with the RN-42 HID bluetooth module. The main ino file remains mostly unchanged, the major changes were turning any keyboard.press and mouse.move type commands to makeyMate class commands.
- maKeyMate_BT directory - This houses the Arduino example code. Standard to the Arduino file directory structure, the main .ino file shares the same name as the directory.
- hardware - This houses the Eagle design files for the schematic and PCB of the Bluetooth Mate for MaKey MaKey.

If you have any trouble with this code, or are looking for a step-by-step guide, please check out the wiki first. I'll be monitoring the issues, so if the wiki doesn't solve your problem, please post away there.
