Simple KVM lets you control multiple PCs from one mouse, keyboard and monitor(s). It is similar to Haimgel's display-switch (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29608967), but it provides a GUI which hopefully makes it a bit easier to set up. It also supports hotkeys which effectively lets you alt+tab between computers. I was surprised by the star-to-download ratio (55:400) on GitHub, so I thought I'd post it here as it might be useful to someone. Feedback welcome! Thanks, Fidel

An open-source solution designed for individuals with extreme physical limitations, including total paralysis. When traditional assistive tech fails, this works by interpreting a single micro-movement—like slightly opening the mouth—into full PC control. Features a core system that receives micro-signals from any sensor to navigate a customizable hierarchical menu. The system enables voice commands for non-verbal users and bypasses OS language barriers. Ready to restore digital independence.
