What is GfxTablet?

GfxTablet shall make it possible to use your Android device (especially tablets) like a graphics tablet.

It consists of two components:

-- the GfxTablet Android app -- the input driver for your PC

The GfxTablet app sends motion and touch events via UDP to a specified host on port 40118.

The input driver must be installed on your PC. It creates a virtual "network tablet" on your PC that is controlled by your Android device.

So, you can use your Android tablet or smartphone to control the PC and, for instance use GIMP with your Android tablet as a graphics tablet (even pressure-sensitive, if your hardware supports it).
