This is a hobby Unity project that allows controlling a 64-bit Windows PC remotely from a mobile/desktop device. Currently, it allows changing the system's volume and triggering the left, right, up, down and space keys. I've created this plugin mainly to control the video playback on my computer from afar, preferably from my couch 😀 The project is created with Unity 2019.4.26f1. It uses Unity's NetworkDiscovery component to discover the PC from the remote control device.
This project requires a companion app on both the Windows PC and the remote control device (tested on Galaxy S8). Both of these devices must be on the same network (tested on a home Wi-Fi network).
- To create the companion app for the Windows PC, enable only the Listener scene in Build Settings and create a Standalone x86_64 build. This companion app must stay open for the remote control to work. Alternatively, you can open the Listener scene in Unity and hit Play
- To create the companion app for the remote control device, enable only the Broadcaster scene in Build Settings and create a build for your target platform
