Abstract
An electronic device is controlled by another electronic device which is installed with same operating system as the electronic device. An interface corresponding to an interface of the another electronic device, receives control signals generated by the another electronic device. An application module decodes the control signals. A virtual driver recognizes the type of user input contained in each control signal and transmit each control signal to a corresponding one of the drivers. The drivers interprets each control signal as a command of a corresponding one of the applications. At least one application executes the command.
