| From: Stewart Russell <scruss@gmail.com> | The Model A, Compute Module, and Raspberry Pi Zero *can* do it, but will | need some kernel fiddling to enable gadget mode. The problem is that you don't get much other I/O on these. No other USB, no ethernet, no RS232-style serial port. So yes, they could emulate a keyboard but then it would be hard to provide input to the Pi. The various I/O pins could be harnessed but to me that would multiply the complexity of a project. (A project that would amuse me, but not enough to do it, would be to build a KM switch (i.e. a Keyboard / Video / Mouse switch without the video part). But that would take n gadget interfaces.)
