Looking Glass is an open source application that allows the use of a KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) configured for VGA PCI Pass-through without an attached physical monitor, keyboard or mouse.


The Looking Glass Memory Protocol (LGMP) may be extended over a high bandwidth network using the Telescope Looking Glass Proxy.

It may be possible to port the Looking Glass Memory Protocol to Xen by use of the Grant Table memory sharing primitive rather than the IVSHMEM primitive.
