This universal application lets you send keystrokes and mouse events to you Raspberry Pi computers over TCP/IP via a wired or wireless network.
Remote Pi is ideal for making the best out of a Raspberry Pi in the living room, or office too. Use for:
- Browsing
- Emailing
- Text editing
- Drawing
- Controlling media players

Benefits:
- Simplicity.
- Keep the two USB ports in your Raspberry Pi Model B free when using wired network.
