Whenever the server receives correct message, the server will simulate a virtual joystick input signal. Wireless Virtual Joystick does not worry about the small space, wires jam or USB port limitation. The objective of this thesis project is to develop a smart phone joystick which enables people to use a smart phone application to do the joystick job. Different with real joystick, it is wireless. This is an advantage in some special cases. This thesis introduces the scope of this project at first. There are details of the project background, used technology, the scope of this application, and the design of this project. Then there is coding and testing procedure description. In the last there are a summary and conclusion of this project. The application has been developed successfully. All functions expected are carried out and the performance is excellent. It can send messages from mobile devices to target server and simulate joystick input correctly without any delay. All of the objectives are achieved.
