Your phone as a keyboard and mouse
Japanese company Quixun has developed a system enabling the use of a mobile phone as PC keyboard and mouse.
This system employs the infrared communication function of the phone.
The keypress imput of the phone is converted into a keypress for the PC by IR sensor attached to the PC by USB (for example, pressing the "2" key twice on the phone will result in a keypress of "B" on the computer). Operation of the mouse will likely be emulated using the directional buttons of the phone.
The system can also employ phone functions such as communication and camera, as well as transferring URL data read from QR codes using the phone, and even AV remote controller functionality.
