  • Is it possible to control 'any device' which can be connected to my phone via USB from my phone using this? I want a programmatic solution. – Asha Soman Jul 04 '13 at 04:35
  • You mean you need to write a program for each device that can be controled? – Tombeau Jul 04 '13 at 04:39
  • M'am you have asked some serious question without the research. Its a research topic that leads you into the augmented reality and many more ways. refer following links http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2908530/external-usb-devices-to-android-phones http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/10/sparkfun-intros-ioio-for-android-a-hack-free-breakout-box-to-ge/ – Tombeau Jul 04 '13 at 04:55

Yes this is possible in some way. If you are able to control an RS232 to USB converter like the PL2303 (the normal ones that you get in the market) then you will be able to do many things. For this you will need a device that supports USB host, then you can check this PL2303 test project which I already tested and can say that works very good. You can use it as the start point for controlling the USB port. This solution works for RS232 compatible devices which you can easily adapt with some electronics using a micro controller.
