Using Apple Watch to control PowerPoint playback and Desktop projection, applepowerpoint
[Abstract]
Apple Watch got started for a week and tried some interesting functions. Here we take the iOS version of PowerPoint to adapt to Watch as an example to explain how to use Watch to make a cool playing controller.
[Preparation]
- Apple Watch paired with iPhone
- PC or Mac (Windows 10 Technical Preview is used as an example)
- Wi-Fi network
- Projector
[Method]
We know that Watch will be continuously connected after pairing with the iPhone through Bluetooth, which is the basis for communication between all the Watch OS applications and iOS applications. So Watch cannot communicate directly with the PC. How can we implement Watch to control the PC-side PowerPoint? There should be no way at present, unless Microsoft or Apple will make adaptive changes in the future. Moreover, pairing Watch with iPhone is the current product logic of Watch. Here we have to go back and use Apple's AirPlay technology.
Now you can stand in any position you want to stand up and raise your arm (strange image) to start presentation.
[Note]
Q:"Press and hold"What does it mean?
A: Apple Watch uses the ForceTouch technology to respond to the touch intensity. If it is clicked lightly, it only recognizes it as A normal touch.
Q: Are there other tools besides iTools?
A: Yes, but iTools does A good job. In fact, iTools also providesReal-time desktopIt can achieve a similar projection effect, but it is obviously stuck in use, without the AirPlay technology.
Q: How do I implement an operating system other than Windows?
A: AirPlay can be implemented using AirServer, Reflection, and other software on Mac. I have never practiced AirPlay here. In the Linux environment, it is said that someone has cracked the attack and the specific operation is unknown.
Q: Are you here to show off?
A: No. Are you kidding me? (do you think I'm showing off my wealth when I eat a pancake fruit and add more eggs )?
