Searching the internet, you're likely going to find people who say this is not possible. At least where USB is concerned. Where the RasberryPI is concerned the USB ports on it are connected to a hub chip, which then runs in USB master mode. So . . . using HID USB descriptors is not possible in this case. Or so I've read.
However, with all that said, I do believe the beaglebone's 'client' port is capable of USB slave mode. Regardless read Phil Polstra's post here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/beagleboard/Umoa2yElKM8/JdD0SY_oCQAJ He did a DEFCON demonstration using a beaglebone to emulate a PC keyboard( I think ). That should be more than enough to get you started.
