During the past years, the development of Android devices, especially the Android phones, is dramatically changing the global technology development tendency. In addition to that, Google had recently published the Voice Typing feature for Android 4.0+. According to the two factors, this FYP student attempted to develop a new mobile application that is powered by Android operation system and featured by the newest technology. The aim of this report was to provide Android device users with an overview and various features of this application. The uniqueness of this application is that users will be able to control their Power Point slides via voice with key words. Besides that, it is also a more user friendly application by eliminating the needs to control the slides via pressing certain buttons. Instead, the application allows user to input voice to control the “Previous”, “Next”, “Start” and “Stop” functions of Microsoft Power Point. At present, minimal researches have been done. In today’s world, there are a variety number of Android applications relating to Power Point Control, which has been widely developed by couples of Android developers (commercially or non-commercially). However, the physical inputs for all those application were needed to control the “next”, “previous”, “start”, “stop” features. On the contrary, this project was aim to control the power point by using voice instead of any physical (touching, shaking, etc.) control. In contrast, this application would highly increase the user friendly experience of the Power Point Control Application. However, there may be better methods to highly enhance the Android Power Point Control Application. More in depth, studies could be done to improve the Android application.
