This universal application controls every device connected to your local network. It is a generic remote controller for your smartphone which sends and reads strings over a tcp/udp socket or queries http interfaces. You can easily communicate with micro controllers connected to your LAN (for example AVR-Board, Arduino Board, HomeVision, Fhem, reembox, raspberry pi (e.g. gpio), beaglebone (beagle board), TI Launchpad, tinkerforge, gnublin, electric imp, self made hardware / microcontroller, simply all your DIY projects ) or with other computer software (for example multimedia software like XBMC ).
Control your RFM12 power outlets, infrared devices or read sensor data like temperature.. there are endless possibilities for house and home automation! Check out the project page on our website to get inspired! Works also for many projects in the "internet of things'.

Build your own remote control ( HMI ) with the online editor on my website without knowing how to create android applications.

Features:
