HID driver documentation

ViGEmBus is a Windows kernel-mode driver and USB HID emulation framework that creates virtual gaming peripherals. It functions as a virtual gamepad driver that the operating system recognizes as physical hardware devices at the kernel level. The project enables kernel-level hardware mimicry to bypass game-specific device requirements and supports remote input redirection, allowing controller data to be sent over a network to a remote machine. The system covers a range of capabilities including USB game controller emulation and game input automation, which allows for the recording and playbac

OpenTabletDriver is a user-mode graphics tablet driver and USB HID input manager that translates raw USB input from digitizer hardware into system cursor and pen events. It serves as a hardware abstraction layer that normalizes input from various tablet brands into a consistent API, providing a cross-platform pen interface with pressure and tilt sensitivity. The project distinguishes itself through a plugin-based architecture and a profile-based configuration system, allowing for custom filters, interpolators, and persistent hardware setups. It includes specialized tools for hardware driver d

libusb is a cross-platform user-space library that provides a consistent C API for discovering, configuring, and communicating with USB devices from applications. It abstracts operating-system-specific USB driver details behind a single interface that works on Linux, macOS, Windows, and other platforms, enabling developers to write portable USB code without platform-specific knowledge. The library supports both synchronous and asynchronous I/O models for USB transfers. Synchronous operations block the calling thread until a transfer completes, offering a straightforward sequential programming

This project provides a framework and toolset for developing memory-safe kernel-mode and user-mode drivers for the Windows operating system. It enables developers to build drivers using safe programming patterns that prevent common memory errors and system crashes, while providing the necessary infrastructure to interface with low-level hardware and system APIs. The framework distinguishes itself by offering procedural macros and binding generation tools that translate complex C-style system headers into idiomatic, type-safe code. It includes a custom global allocator designed for the strict

This repository is a collection of reference source code and implementation examples for developing drivers using the Windows Driver Kit. It provides hardware device driver samples and development templates for building kernel-mode software that enables communication between the Windows operating system and hardware devices. The library includes examples for creating universal Windows drivers, which utilize a shared set of interfaces to operate across multiple versions of the operating system. It also contains specialized implementation samples for various hardware categories, including netwo
