## Description

LittleBigMouse is a multi-monitor DPI mouse manager designed to synchronize cursor movement and transitions across displays with differing pixel densities. It functions as a cursor transition controller and display geometry optimizer to ensure consistent mouse navigation in diverse monitor setups.

The software provides tools for adjusting virtual screen sizes and positions to match a physical desk layout. It implements mouse movement normalization and transition coordination to eliminate cursor jumps when crossing boundaries between monitors with different DPI settings.

The system includes capabilities for managing screen edge resistance thresholds to prevent accidental crossovers and a hardware display diagnostic tool to retrieve technical specifications from connected monitors. It also features tools for balancing color and brightness profiles across multiple screens.
