Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for remotely controlling a personal computer (PC). from a mobile device. The method includes displaying, by a first input module operating on the mobile device, an input GUI on the mobile device. The first input module interacts with a second input module operating on the PC. The method includes, upon receiving an activation of a virtual input on the input GUI, retrieving a first simulated input that is associated with the virtual input. The method further includes transmitting the first simulated input to the second input module, wherein the second input module is configured to perform the first simulated input on the PC in response to the activation of the virtual input on the input GUI.
