Show HN: Roadie – An open-source KVM that lets AI control your phone (github.com/vibiumdev)
5 points by hugs 27 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
Roadie is an open-source hardware KVM controlled via HTTP. HDMI capture in, USB keyboard/mouse/touch out, all from a browser.

Hardware KVMs with web UIs have existed for years (PiKVM, TinyPilot, JetKVM, etc.). Roadie adds two things they don't generally have: multi-touch support (so it works with phones and tablets) and a focus on agent-driven use: any browser automation tool can drive the /view page directly, or connect to the WebSocket endpoint for lower-level programmatic control.

~$86 in parts, including two CircuitPython boards, an HDMI-to-USB dongle, and a Go server running on the host. No software needed on the target.



Where can I buy this please (fully assembled)?
