Could you build this?
Partial The logic is straightforward Python, but it requires reverse-engineering or interfacing with specific proprietary Logitech legacy hardware protocols over USB/HID.
What it would actually take: The stack uses Python with `pyusb` or `hidapi` alongside system monitoring libraries like `psutil`. The hard part is reverse-engineering the raw HID byte protocol for the Logitech G510 160x43 monochrome display buffer and RGB LED controller commands without relying on official SDKs, requiring hardware testing and low-level protocol debugging.
