 1. Introduction:

1.1. Purpose of document:

This is design document for android base pc controller. This document is primarily intended to provide
detail design and architecture of the system. The DD will facilitate everyone who wants to precede our
work or want to research on remote desktop sharing controlling devices remotely or using WIFI
technology.

1.2. Project overview:

An android PC controller is an android application project that works like PC mouse. The project controls
pc keyboard functions and mouse operations through an android mobile phone. The problem is that we
cannot interact with our PC in meeting and during lectures. Through this we can interact with our
system in any part of our meeting room. The application is made using android and creates a keypad
buttons similar to the one used in PC. The application when installed and run on an android based
phone shows a keypad settings screen. With the keypad user can even use it for typing it on any word
processor and can operate any application.

1.3 Scope :
This project is named as “Android based pc controller”. The project is limited to two devices having WIFI
technology at both end for sending and receiving. The project includes work on Advance GUI (Graphical
User Interface) Programming for android application and computer application, network programming.
The application should able to controlled computer through android device. The user can provide input
from android device. The computer and device will be paired using WIFI.

2. Design consideration
2.1 Assumption and dependencies
 PC( Personal Computer ) compatible running Windows
 1GB RAM or more is recommended.
 Graphics card 256 or more.
 Processor 3.0 GHz.
 Operate on android device

2.2 Risk and Volatile Area

There is a security risk anyone near to our can track our IP address and control our PC.Performance
depends upon the distance.
 3. System Architecture
In this system there is client-server architecture. In which android mobile phone is a client and pc/laptop
is a server. Client send request to the server for connection establishment via wireless communication
(WIFI). Connection is established using handshaking. After connection establishment ports are assign
and sockets are established at both ends for communication.
3.1 System level Architecture
4. Design Strategies

InterProcess Communication
InterProcess Communication (IPC) is a set of methods for the exchange of data among multiple
threads in one or more processes. Processes may be running on one or more computers
connected by a network. IPC methods are divided into methods for message passing,
synchronization, shared memory, and remote procedure calls (RPC).

There are several reasons for providing an environment that allows process cooperation:

 Information sharing
 Computational speedup
 Modularity
 Convenience
 Privilege separation

Socket Programming :
A socket is a bidirectional communication device that can be used to communicate with another
process on the same machine or with a process running on other machines. Sockets are the only
InterProcess Communication that permit communication between processes on different
devices such as here in this project the devices are laptop and android mobile. Normally, a
server runs on a specific computer and has a socket that is bound to a specific port number.

Wi-Fi Technology
To turn ON Wi-Fi on android device Wi-Fi Manager provides the primary API for managing all
aspects of Wi-Fi connectivity. A programmer can get Wi-Fi Manager instance through
Context.getSystemService (Context.WIFI_SERVICE). Wi-Fi Manager is used to find the currently
active Wi-Fi network and change the Wi-Fi state. Android application must be installed on your
android mobile (version 2.2 and above) and the Java application on your laptop respectively.
