Mouse Jiggler instructions to "activate" your status even if you are not on your keyboard ("AFK")
I was relieved that after 10 minutes I had my computer locked my desktop and needed to log in again with a password. If I was in the center of the presentation this was a real downer.
AFKfix identified itself as a host computer mouse and moves the mouse at random intervals by less than one pixel. This is sufficient to keep your computer watchful, but it doesn't hamper your work.
Teams and Skype will stay active and games will not be long enough. Therefore it is safe to use software on the computer provided by your employer school, university etc. No program is installed on your computer.
Just plug it into, it does not require any other setup or installation.... but it is based on the popular development board of "Digispark," so you can program it yourself if you like! There is a tiny push-button switch on the microcontroller, where you can choose to play with a dual- color LED. However, if you are looking for a generic Arduino, this one is somewhat fiddly to use if you plan to make a lot of hacking or development. I would probably recommend a "Picoduino" for a small Digispark-compatible device.
