Abstract: Sheremeta R.H., Nakonechny A.Y. (head). Explore the touchpad and keyboard control system using an Android device. Master’s qualification work. - National University "Lviv Polytechnic", Lviv, 2020. Extended annotation. With the development of technology, the use of smartphones in everyday life is becoming more common. Today, almost every adult has their own smartphone. Modern mobile development tools allow developers to implement many ideas for different purposes, such as using a smartphone as a mouse or touchpad to control a computer. Today, there are many utilities that offer many ready-made remote control systems, but some of them need improvement or are difficult to use. In the master’s qualification work, a study of the touchpad and keyboard control system was performed using an Android device. The developed program allows using a smartphone on OC Android or iOS to control the mouse cursor in devices on OC Windows, which is very important in case of damage to the computer keyboard or touchpad problems. In practice, often have to pause the movie, change the song, and do not always want to approach the software and in such cases, it is very convenient to connect to a computer via phone. The object of research - the processes of development of control systems using Android devices, system design technology. The subject of research - touchpad and keyboard control systems using Android devices. The purpose of the study is to develop and research software for controlling the touchpad and computer keyboard on Windows using an Android device. The paper proposes the use of the latest programming technologies for Android, namely the Go and JavaScript languages, which made it possible to create and develop software in the integrated environment of Android Studio. Improved keyboard and touchpad control system based on Android device, which, unlike existing analogues, allows you to control the cursor, enter text, change the volume remotely from another device. The process of using this software has been further developed, due to which the system allows to replace the damaged problem of the computer keyboard or the touch panel. The practical significance of the work is that the results of research can be used in work, study and everyday life. However, full PC access is not always required. Most often you need to pause the movie, change the songs or start the program. At work, such a need may be to control the presentation and slide show. The convenience of the application allows you to use an Android smartphone as a mouse, keyboard and touchpad. An important factor is that Android can be a good backup if a computer mouse or keyboard breaks. The result is a developed system that allows you to control the cursor, enter text, change the volume remotely from another device. The smartphone simulates the function of the touchpad and keyboard using a web browser. To perform the control, you need to open the URL generated by the program or scan the QR code.
