About

Roadie is an open-source hardware KVM controlled via HTTP. HDMI capture in, USB keyboard&#x2F;mouse&#x2F;touch out, all from a browser.<p>Hardware KVMs with web UIs have existed for years (PiKVM, TinyPilot, JetKVM, etc.). Roadie adds two things they don&#x27;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 &#x2F;view page directly, or connect to the WebSocket endpoint for lower-level programmatic control.<p>~$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.

AI Score Reasoning

Roadie targets a compelling niche by pivoting traditional KVM hardware toward the burgeoning AI agent and mobile automation market. While the technical implementation is clever and addresses gaps like multi-touch, the project currently lacks commercial traction, team pedigree data, and a clear moat against established open-source competitors.
