When testing iPhone/iPad apps in iOS Simulator, you will sometimes need to press the ‘Home’ button, lock button & screen shots etc… This is quite easy with the drop down menu or keyboard shortcuts. But thats still to hard for me having to learn a keyboard shortcuts with three buttons, thats absurd!
So I created this quick and dirty solution, using spare parts and a Adafruit Trinket
Trinket may be small, but do not be fooled by its size! It’s a tiny microcontroller board, built around the Atmel ATtiny85, a little chip with a lot of power. We wanted to design a microcontroller board that was small enough to fit into any project, and low cost enough to use without hesitation. Perfect for when you don’t want to give up your expensive dev-board and you aren’t willing to take apart the project you worked so hard to design. It’s our lowest-cost arduino-IDE programmable board!
