1. What are they?
2. This can be used for the computer and not just monitor right?
3. If my sick sister and I were in the same house with one monitor in one room and one different monitor in her bedroom, could we both “plug in” to the same screen to play various “one player games” each of us being played one?
4. If so, How can we do this and where can we get the materials? What’s the cost?
Thank you!

OK… so it seems like you’re kind of talking about two different things.
There’s a device that’s referred to as a KVM switch. This allows you to use one keyboard, mouse, and display for multiple computers, the switch typically has either buttons on it, or a specialized keyboard input sequence, to switch between computers. I have one that uses a remote to switch between computers. You can get one of these for as cheap as $20.
If you’re trying to do “two users on one device”, you can connect multiple displays and keyboards/mice to a single computer, but then you will likely run into issues of input conflict. I don’t know if there’s software out there that can deconflict multiple inputs like that.
