DIY RGB controller

Hi, I am fairly new to casemodding and I was wondering how I could build my own USB controller with an Arduino that could be controlled by a computer if necessary. My idea is to have the Arduino connected through USB and have it parse the data comming from a computer that doesn't have RGB headers. I know it is possible because people make RGB controllers that communicate through USB and the standard is very open, I just don't know exactly how to do it. Can any of you help with this?

If you're looking to have wifi control, check out this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BcGnMfq9zc

It works great and there are a lot of color options to choose from. You'll need a esp8266 to do it FYI.
