Abstract
Effective collaborative diagnosis in a presentation environment requires the presenter’s ability to control equipment at a distance Conventional remote control multimedia presenters suffice for basic functionality of presentation applications However such factorymade remote controls are not particularly useful for a wider variety of applications especially in the medical field where effective use of the systems and applications require the use of different keys This paper reports the development of a USB universal serial bus remote control with customizable buttons using RF radio frequency technology and allowing for effective control for a large range of manipulations on a workstation Description of the implementation ideas and results achieved in the development of the firmware and hardware for such a technological tool for use in improving collaborative medical diagnosis and teaching are presented in this article
