4.8 HID over I2C
HID over I2C is a standard interface protocol to connect devices with hosts via I2C. The main
advantage of HID is that there exist generic drivers for different input devices (such as
sensors) which can be used with sensors that implement the corresponding well defined HID
profiles. HID over I2C describes how messages (reports and events) are exchanged
between the device and the host. A descriptor of the structure of these reports is provided by
the device and read by the host during initialization of the device at host system start.
For detailed information on HID please refer to the HID over I2C documentation from
Microsoft.
