My idea is derived from the third idea of "http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Google_Summer_of_Code_2013#Projects_within_the_client.2Fserver_area" :Improved remote clients for tablet/touch devices - Design and implement a remote client for touch-based devices (Android, iOS) that interact with the main APIs that XBMC provides for client apps (JSON-RPC and UPnP server). This may involve building on the existing Android or iOS remote control, and extending the JSON-RPC API and/or UPnP server for any additional requirements, including server transcoding, remote control playback, using the remote as a local audio stream for quiet watching/listening with headphones, or even copying transcoded files locally for future playback.
The "clients" I mentioned contains the functions of "client" mentioned in the paragraph above. Besides that, it can directly play videos which stored in the PC. It acts like the Remote Desktop software such as the famous splashtop(http://www.splashtop.com/).
