techincal part

In this post, I would look for softwares or any methods to that I can use in this project.

As mentioned in my previous post, my users can interact or trigger my video's options/decisions/buttons through mobile phone. Therefore, I need to do research on softwares or any programming that could connect mobile and pc.

Sweii suggested that I can create a mock up application/flash player on mobile which has the same interface with a mobile phone keypad. Then when user click on them, they are actually click on a flash player.


RemoteMouse
So, I found this software which introduced by classmate, Redzuan.
They have few features :-

- Two finger tapping for double click
- Two finger dragging for scroll
- Function keyboard with arrow keys
- Touchpad with vertical and horizontal orientation
- Accelerometer based mouse
- Works over WIFI network or 3G


How to Remote Control PC with a phone using vnc
This is another software where a handphone screen can display everything on a pc.
If you log in to facebook through phone, it will also shows on the pc screen.

I actually thought of using two computers in this project. One of it is to show the user our video, another one is to connect a mobile phone and show the mobile interface (mock up flash player) so that user can interact with it.
However, I don't think this is not working because you have to scroll left/right/up/down on the mobile screen to view overall pc's display.

So, not going to use this way.
