I want to have a computer that I can display on any screen/device that supports casting (essentially any screen in the Home Assistant network). For example, I can take this computer and tell it to cast to a Roku in one room or a smart TV in another room. I haven’t decided how I will trigger going between the room yet. I am thinking this computer is going to be nothing more then a docker container. I also haven’t decided how I am going to tell the container to boot. I will use some light weight Linux OS with a GUI like Linux Mint XFCE. I can use the GUI to shut the computer down. I have a wireless keyboard/mouse I plan on using to control this computer. The computer running the docker container will need to know to pass the input to the container computer. Any recommendations on implementations?
This may be of some use:
