Firmware and reverse engineering
Reading what a mouse, keyboard or controller really sends over the wire, then documenting it or replacing the firmware behind it.
USB HID reports, bootloaders, protocol captures.

What the lab does
01 / Areas of focus
Accessible input
Controllers, remaps and drivers shaped around the person using them, for people who can't use a stock mouse or keyboard the way it ships.
One-handed layouts, hold-to-toggle, switch access, custom buttons.
Software consulting
Design and build work for teams that need an experienced engineer for a while: untangling an old system, planning a new one, or shipping the part that is stuck.
Architecture, back-end, cloud, data.
Small lab. Curious by nature.
02 / Behind the name
The lab is named after its founder, Kuba Swierszczyk, whose surname is the Polish word for a little cricket.
Crickets hear through their front legs and sing by drawing one wing across the other. They are small and easy to miss until they make a sound. That suits a one-person lab that spends its days listening to what devices say.
Little Cricket Labs LLC was formed in Michigan in 2026.
