Abstract:
Communication between a Human Interface Device (HID) protocol capable computing device (14) and an HID incapable remote control device (12) is enabled by generating an operating system interface event based on a wirelessly received command (104) from the remote control device (12) at the BIOS (66) of the computing device (14), forwarding the generated event to a control software service (70); determining a unique action identifier associated with the received command based on the generated event at the control software service (110, 112), and forwarding one or more HID packets based on the action identifier to an HID driver (114) such that the received command is interpreted for processing by an application on the computing device (14).
