将Android平板作为Mac显示器
嗨，HN，
我想将一台安卓平板用作macOS的第二个显示器，类似于苹果的Sidecar——并希望它能与运行Sidecar的iPad同时工作，这样我就可以在我的MacBook上拥有两个外部显示器（Sidecar只允许连接一台iPad）。
我没有找到合适的解决方案，于是我自己开发了Caboose。
Caboose允许你通过USB或Wi-Fi将安卓平板用作额外的macOS显示器。它经过优化，具有低延迟，即使在无线连接下也能良好运行。你可以与Apple Sidecar一起使用，从同一台Mac驱动一台iPad和一台安卓平板。
要同时使用Caboose和Sidecar，首先需要启动Caboose，然后再通过Sidecar添加iPad。这是由于macOS对显示设备的管理方式所致。
我在旅行期间每天都在使用MacBook + 安卓平板 + iPad的组合，这对我的工作流程非常稳定。

Hi HN,<p>I wanted to use an Android tablet as a second display on macOS, similar to Apple’s Sidecar — and I wanted it to work at the same time as an iPad running Sidecar so I could have 2 external displays with my MacBook (Sidecar only allows 1 iPad).<p>I couldn’t find anything that I liked, so I built Caboose.<p>Caboose lets you use an Android tablet as an additional macOS display via USB or Wi-Fi. It’s optimized for low latency and works well even wirelessly. You can use it alongside Apple Sidecar to drive both an iPad and an Android tablet from the same Mac.<p>To use Caboose and Sidecar together, Caboose needs to be started first, and the iPad added via Sidecar afterward. This is due to how macOS manages display devices.<p>I’ve been using this daily while traveling with a MacBook + Android tablet + iPad and it’s been very solid for my workflow.<p>Website: https://www.jefferyabbott.com/caboose<p>This is my first time posting to HN — happy to answer questions or talk through technical tradeoffs.
