I use something similar to this:
https://www.amazon.ca/MX3-BIFANS-Keyboard-Wireless-infrared/dp/B074W38QGW?crid=3FBR129OGK38P
From Linux's point of view, it shows up as a USB keyboard.  However, it
may not be suitable for you if you want one with only a few buttons... this
is a full QWERTY keyboard on one side with a TV-like remote control
on the other.

Dianne.
