How can I automatically click the Play button of the Avatar after my device starts up

Attention: We strongly discourage the automation of the button click process as it hinders the ability for end customers to provide explicit consent for data processing. It is important to be aware that automating this process may not comply with GDPR regulations in all countries. Therefore, it is vital to review the specific GDPR regulations applicable to your jurisdiction.
 
 
For customers within the EU, alternative methods should be explored to ensure that end customers willingly acknowledge and accept the terms and conditions related to data processing associated with the Avatar interaction.
 

Automating a Mouse Click at Startup

This tutorial explains how to automate a mouse click at startup using a Python script. Follow the steps below to set it up.
 

Step 1: Install Python

  •  Download the latest version of Python for your operating system.
  •  Run the installer and follow the instructions to install Python.
 

Step 2: Install Required Libraries 

  •  Open the command prompt (Windows) or terminal (Mac/Linux).
  •  Execute the following command to install the pyautogui library:
    pip install pyautogui
     

 

Step 3: Download the Script File

  •  Download the script file provided to you (e.g., autoclick.py) and save it to a convenient location on your computer.

 

Step 4: Configure Script to Run at Startup

 
Windows:
  •  Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
  •  Type shell:startup and hit Enter. This will open the Startup folder.
 Copy the script file (autoclick.py) and paste it into the Startup folder.
 
Mac:
  •  Open the Automator app from the Applications folder.
  •  Select "New Document" and choose "Application" as the document type.
  •  Drag the "Run Shell Script" action from the library to the workflow area.
  •  In the shell script action, enter the command to run the script. For example:
    python /path/to/autoclick.py
     
  •  Save the application with a suitable name and location.
  •  Open "System Preferences" and go to "Users & Groups."
  •  Click on your user account and go to the "Login Items" tab.
  •  Click the "+" button and add the application you created.
 
Linux:
  • Open your desktop environment's settings or preferences.
  •  Look for "Startup Applications" or similar settings.
  •  Add a new entry with the command to run the script. For example:
     python /path/to/autoclick.py
     
 

Step 5: Customize the Script (Optional)

  •  If you want the click to happen at a specific location on the screen, open the script file (autoclick.py) using a text editor.
  •  Look for the lines that specify the coordinates (click_x and click_y).
  •  Modify these values to the desired X and Y coordinates on the screen. Save the changes.
 

Step 6: Set the timout

  •  In the script where it says time.sleep(3) switch the 3 to the amount of seconds that the script should wait before clicking.
  •  Best would be to check how long it takes your device to open and fully load the Avatar and then setting the timer accordingly.
  •  E.g.: when the Avatar with the Play button is shown 25 seconds after the device is booted up, a good timing would be to use 30 seconds.
 

Step 7: Reboot and Test 

  •  Restart your computer.
  •  After the computer finishes booting up, the script will automatically run in the background and simulate a mouse click.
  •  The terminal window (if applicable) will close automatically after the click is performed.
 
Please note that the provided steps assume a basic level of familiarity with the operating system. Adjustments may be necessary based on specific system configurations.
