## Fully-featured and modern IP-KVM
* **Cheaper, but better than commercial solutions**
Costs between $30 and $100 depending on the features desired. Even the most expensive configuration will be cheaper than a $500 commercial IP-KVM.
* **Easy to build - For the V0 variant**
* **Easy to build - For the V1 variant**
A ready-to-use OS that can be created just by running `make build` and installed to an SD-card using `make install`. The hardware can be made in half an hour and without soldering.
* **The widest hardware support**
There are many ways to build a PiKVM. Video capture devices can be attached using the CSI-2 or USB interfaces. Raspberry Pi models 2, 3, 4 or Zero2W may be used. Any combination of hardware is supported, and PiKVM implements the maximum possible set of features.

# Using Arduino HID on non-V0 platform
This is useful if you need a simple and primitive keyboard/mouse emulator device. For example when used with a hardware KVM switch which [does not recognize composite HID](https://github.com/pikvm/pikvm/issues/7). You can also use the Arduino HID to emulate the PS/2 keyboard.
!!! warning "Legacy warning"
This page describes the legacy keyboard and mouse emulator used in old DIY builds.
There is no point using it today because there is a more modern and better replacement for the [new Pico HID](pico_hid.md).
This one can also serve as an in-place compatible replacement for the Arduino HID in the old build.

If your KVM switches channels using keyboard shortcuts, there is a chance that it will not be able to work with OTG (v2+ platform, see below), since it does not fully implement the USB stack. In this case, you will have to [use the Pico HID](pico_hid.md) to emulate the keyboard & mouse (PiKVM supports this configuration).
