Barrier is a software that works just like a KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) switch, which allows you to use a single mouse and keyboard to control several different computers by physically turning a dial on the box to switch the machine you're controlling at any given time. Barrier is able to do this in software, giving you control over different machines by simply moving your mouse to the edge of the screen, or by using a keypress to switch focus to a different system. Barrier was built to be simple and reliable, allowing you to control a different machine by simply using your mouse and keyboard from another. It works on all major operating systems (Linux, Windows, MacOS/OS X), including FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

This project was originally designed to provide an open-source replacement for PPJoy. The product, at this point, consists of virtual joystick devices that is seen by the system as a standard joystick but its position-data is written to it by a feeder application. An existing feeder application that takes advantage of this product is SmartPropoPlus. If you are an application writer you can very easily write an application that controls a joystick (e.g. mouse-to-joystick, keyboard-to-joystick). If you are a beginner in device drivers you can take this code and enhance it to support more (or less) axes, buttons or POVs.

A very high quality package of printer drivers for CUPS on Linux and other POSIX-compliant operating systems. This project also maintains an enhanced Print plug-in for GIMP 2.x from the same code base.

libdc1394 is a library that provides a high level programming interface for application developers who wish to control and capture streams from IEEE 1394 based cameras that conform to the 1394-based Digital Camera Specifications (also known as the IIDC or DCAM Specifications). libdc1394 also supports some USB cameras that are IIDC compliant. Besides capture and control, libdc1394 provides a full set of colour space conversion functions (including RAW decoding), vendor specific functions and direct camera register access. Keywords: ieee1394, IIDC, DCAM, firewire, USB, machine vision, computer vision, video capture, library

Hotplugging is a facility that supports dynamic (re)configuration of GNU/Linux distributions by kernel reports to user mode "agent" software.

The USB/IP Project aims to develop a general USB device sharing system over IP network. To share USB devices between computers with their full functionality, USB/IP encapsulates USB I/O requests into IP packets and transmits them between computers.

LIRC is a package that supports receiving and sending IR signals of IR remote controls, adding functionality and flexibility to the basic support in the Linux kernel. Support for LIRC is ubiquitous in Linux HTPC applications; it's also packaged in all major Linux distributions. Despite it's name, LIRC also works on OSX.

GLDirect is the utility package for Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP that enables OpenGL based games and applications to access 3D hardware acceleration through the Direct3D drivers provided by your graphics hardware manufacturer.

ESPUSB is a software-only USB device stack that adds low-speed USB capability to ESP8266 and ESP8285 microcontrollers. It implements the USB protocol primarily in software instead of relying on dedicated USB hardware. The design needs only a small amount of external circuitry and uses adjacent GPIO pins for the D+ and D- signals. It operates at USB low speed, making it suitable for human-interface devices and control-oriented peripherals. The repository includes an example that emulates a USB keyboard and mouse. A web interface can remotely control those virtual input devices over the ESP8266 network connection. The implementation is highly memory-conscious and includes custom control-message handling, hardware designs, and build tooling for embedded experimentation.

The Linux GPIB Package is a support package for GPIB (IEEE 488.2) hardware. The package contains a development environment consisting of a GPIB library written in C, kernel driver modules, and bindings for several other languages.

A GPU memory test utility for NVIDIA and AMD GPUs using well established patterns from memtest86/memtest86+ as well as additional stress tests. The tests are designed to find hardware and soft errors. The code is written in CUDA and OpenCL.

Tool for controlling the special features of a "U3 smart drive" USB Flash disk.

CUPS back-end for the canon printers using the proprietary USB over IP BJNP protocol. This back-end allows Cups to print over the network to a Canon printer. The design is based on reverse engineering of the protocol. Version 2.0 adds ink-level reporting and improved out-of-paper detection. Version 2.0.1 is now released under GPLv2 or later to be compatible with the changed cups license. No other changes. Version 2.0.2 fixes a compile error with GCC9 Version 2.0.3 Fix GCC10 compile errors. increase status buffer size for newer printers that send larger status messages

UrJTAG aims to create an enhanced, modern tool for communicating over JTAG with flash chips, CPUs, and many more. It is a descendant of the popular openwince JTAG tools with a lot of additional features and enhancements.

QMK (Quantum Mechanical Keyboard) is an open source community centered around developing computer input devices. The community encompasses all sorts of input devices, such as keyboards, mice, and MIDI devices. This is a keyboard firmware based on the tmk_keyboard firmware with some useful features for Atmel AVR and ARM controllers, and more specifically, the OLKB product line, the ErgoDox EZ keyboard, and the Clueboard product line. Keyboards powered by QMK are Planck, Preonic, ErgoDox EZ, Clueboard, Cluepad, Gergo, Georgi, and Atreus. QMK is compatible with lots of other community-supported keyboards and projects. QMK is developed and maintained by Jack Humbert of OLKB with contributions from the community, and of course, Hasu.
