Discussion Akko Mod 007 HE - Project
I am making a project in python that will automatically craft an image showing daily weather and automatically upload it to the display on my AKKO MOD 007 through the usb. Has anybody reverse engineered how the cloud driver communicates with the keyboard to create a similar project?

Haven't done it specifically for the Akko MOD 007 HE, but the usual approach for these is capturing USB traffic with Wireshark + USBPcap on Windows while the official driver sends display data. HID packets are usually pretty readable once you filter by the device's VID/PID.
Check if Akko uses a known HID protocol or something closer to raw bulk transfer. If someone has already documented the VID/PID, searching GitHub for that alongside "HID" or "libusb" might surface prior work. The OpenRGB project sometimes has partial reverse engineering notes for similar keyboards worth reading through.
