\"\"Nope, not the oven-toaster-grill. We're talking about a feature that most Android<\/a> phones have now, USB<\/a> On-The-Go. It's really quite versatile with the right accessories but often forgotten about in the hoopla of specs and performance say Karan Bajaj and Hitesh Raj Bhagat.
\n
\nUnshackle The Data<\/strong>
\n
Thanks to apps like
Shareit<\/a> and Xender<\/a>, it's easy to transfer content wirelessly between smart devices<\/a>. But what if you want to copy a larger amount of data? Using an OTG<\/a> adapter, you can now connect a USB flash drive, portable hard drive and even a microSD card to your smartphone. You can also get a dedicated USB OTG drive with a USB Type-A port on one side and a microUSBType-C port on the other side -you won't need an adapter for these.
\n
\nMake Your Games Better<\/strong>
\n
\nPlaying games using a touch-screen is not everyone's cup of tea -especially third-party action or racing games. With OTG, you can connect a wired USB game controller to your smartphone and enjoy proper gaming. You should know that not all games support a USB controller. Those that do support usually require a one-time configuration of the controller (to map the buttons to certain actions). You can also get controllers with a dock to hold your phone for a superior gaming, for instance, Amkette's Evo Gamepad.

\nReal Thermal Imaging<\/strong>
\n
\nFLIR, makers of thermal imaging cameras, make a USB OTG FLIR camera for Android smartphones.Just snap this 29 gram accessory on, download the FLIR app and you've got a contactless thermal camera.It's got its own battery so it doesn't consume power from the connected device. Just like the smartphone with FLIR camera built in (CAT S60), it uses MSX technology: blending images from a Lepton thermal camera and a VGA visible light camera. This means you can see detail plus temperature. It can measure from --20 to 120 degrees Celsius and can detect temperature differences as small as 0.1 degree Celsius.
\n
\nNeed Faster Internet<\/strong>
\n
\nEthernet is mainly used on desktops for connectivity.
\n
\nBut you can even use it on your smartphone if faster speeds are required or WiFi is unavailable. You will need two things: a USB OTG adapter as well as a USB to Ethernet adapter. Connect both adapters together and plug-in the Ethernet cable. Make sure to switch off WiFi and your 3G4G data to force the phone to switch to the wired connection. Not all Ethernet adapters are compatible with all phones, so your results may vary.
\n
\nBattery Capacity to Spare?<\/strong>
\n
\nThere are Android smartphones that come with large 4,000 or 5,000mAh batteries and support reverse charging (check with manufacturer for your smartphone model). On such phones, you can use an OTG cable to connect a second phone via charging cable and use the first phone like a portable power bank. If your fitness band runs out of power, you can also charge it up in the same way.
\n
\nMake It a Mini Desktop<\/strong>
\n
\nJust like gaming, this will help make things easier for people who don't like using the touchscreen for s input. Using a USB OTG adapter, you can easily connect a wired keyboard or mouse to your t smartphone for navigation and input. Android i automatically detects a connected keyboard and does not require you to install any third-party drivers -you can just connect and start typing in any app. You can also take things a step further and use a wireless keyboard-mouse combo.These come with a single USB unifying dongle that can connect to the phone.
\n
\nTake Control of Your DSLR<\/strong>
\n
\nIts only recently that DSLRs have begun to include WiFi for remote control and wireless transfer. Since one doesn't upgrade DSLRs often, you can still use your phone to control it using a wire. Connect the camera with your smartphone using the USB OTG adapter and the same data transfer cable that came with the DSLR. Install the free DSLR Control app from Play Store and it will let you control your Nikon or Canon DSLR's shutter, adjust settings and show you a live view. Do check if your DSLR model is supported in the app description on the Store before installing.
\n
\nPrinting Without a Computer<\/strong>
\n
\nMost of us take the long way when we need to print something stored on the phone. You'll mail it to a PC connected to a printer first and then get the print. Unless you plan on getting a WiFi printer, the easier way is to use your smartphone's OTG. Just use the USB cable that came with the printer to connect your smartphone and a USB OTG adapter. Most new printers will automatically show up in the phone when you select the print command from the options menu.

\n
\nRemember the USB-powered LED light and fan launched by Xiaomi earlier this year? Similar accessories are now available from a number of brands and that too at cheaper prices. You can now get USB OTG ready LED light and fans -these connect directly to your smartphone with micro USB. Alternatively, you can use an USB OTG adapter to use a LED lightfan that has a standard USB type A port.
\n
\nBut Does Your Phone Support OTG?<\/strong>
\n
\nThere are a number of ways you can check. Some phone makers mention it on their website while some may have an option on the settings page to enable disable OTG. A simpler way is to use a free app like USB OTG Checker or USB OTG Tester.

不,不是oven-toaster-grill。我们谈论的是功能,最多安卓电话现在,USB忙个不停的。很多才多艺的正确的配件,但往往忘记了喧闹的规格和性能说卡兰巴贾杰和语Raj巴。

释放数据

由于应用程序如Shareitxend,很容易转移内容之间的无线智能设备。但是,如果你想要复制一个大的数据量?使用一个OTG适配器,您现在可以连接一个优盘,移动硬盘,甚至microSD卡到你的智能手机。你也可以得到一个专用USB OTG驱动器一侧俘虏一个USB端口和microUSBType-C港另一方面——你不需要一个适配器。

让你的游戏更美好

玩游戏使用触屏不是每个人的杯茶特别是第三方的行为或赛车游戏。OTG一样,您可以将有线USB游戏控制器连接到你的智能手机,享受适当的游戏。你应该知道,并不是所有的游戏都支持USB控制器。那些支持通常需要一次性的配置控制器(按钮映射到特定的行为)。你也可以控制器与优越的码头举行你的手机游戏,例如,Amkette Evo手柄。

真正的热成像

FLIR,热成像相机制造商,使一个USB OTG FLIR相机为Android智能手机。拍这个29克附件,下载FLIR应用和你有一个非接触式热相机。它有它自己的电池所以不消耗电力的连接设备。就像智能手机与FLIR相机建于(猫S60),它使用MSX技术:从轻子混合图像热相机和VGA可见光相机。这意味着你可以看到细节+温度。它可以测量从20到120摄氏度,可以检测温度差异小至0.1摄氏度。

需要更快的网络

以太网主要用于桌面的连接。

但是你甚至可以使用它在你的智能手机如果需要更快的速度或无线网络不可用。你需要两件事:一个USB OTG适配器以及以太网适配器的USB。连接两个适配器一起和插件以太网电缆。确保关掉WiFi和3 g4g数据迫使手机切换到有线连接。并不是所有的以太网适配器兼容所有手机,所以您的结果可能不同。

备用电池容量?

有安卓智能手机的大4000或5000毫安时电池和支持反向充电(与厂家检查你的智能手机模型)。在这样的手机上,您可以使用一个OTG电缆连接第二个电话通过充电电缆,使用第一个手机像一个便携式电源。如果你的健身带耗尽了力量,你也可以以同样的方式给它充电。

迷你桌面

就像游戏一样,这将有助于简化为那些不喜欢使用触摸屏输入。使用USB OTG适配器,您可以很容易地连接有线键盘或鼠标的t智能手机导航和输入。安卓我自动检测连接键盘,不需要安装任何第三方驱动程序——你可以在任何应用程序连接并开始键入。您还可以更进一步,使用无线keyboard-mouse组合。这些有一个USB统一电子狗可以连接到手机。

控制你的数码单反相机

直到最近,数码单反相机已经开始包括无线遥控器和无线传输。因为一个不经常升级的数码单反相机,你仍然可以使用你的手机使用线来控制它。连接相机和智能手机使用USB OTG适配器和相同的数据传输电缆,数码单反相机。安装免费的数码单反相机控制应用程序存储和它玩会让你控制你的尼康或者佳能数码单反相机的快门,调整设置和显示您现场查看。检查是否支持您的数码单反相机模型在应用描述存储在安装之前。

印刷没有一台电脑

我们大多数人把长的路,当我们需要打印存储在手机的东西。你寄电脑连接到打印机,然后打印。除非你打算让无线打印机,更简单的方法是使用智能手机的OTG。只使用的USB连接线与打印机连接你的智能手机和一个USB OTG适配器。大多数新打印机将自动显示在电话当你从选项菜单中选择打印命令。

探索相机

的高端内窥镜设备,这便宜管检验OTG相机的成本只有500年,是防水的,都有其独特的可调节LED光源和发送一个生活,色彩直接向你的Android手机视频。

小钩或磁铁(包括配件),您可以使用它来检索你的钥匙或下降对象从最微小的地方。除了这个工具,还有一堆其他古怪的USB OTG配件,您可以使用:一个打火机,USB脚踏开关(免提控制)和微型电动剃须刀。凌。电动剃须刀的instanc

要有光(风)

记得usb供电的LED灯和风扇发起小米今年早些时候吗?类似的配件现在可以从许多品牌和以便宜的价格。你现在可以准备USB OTG LED灯和风扇——与微型USB直接连接到你的智能手机。或者,您可以使用一个USB OTG适配器使用lightfan领导,有一个标准的USB端口类型。

但是你的手机是否支持OTG ?

有很多方法可以检查。一些手机制造商在他们的网站上提到它,而有些人可能有一个选项设置页面启用禁用OTG。一个更简单的方法是使用一个免费的应用程序像USB OTG检查或USB OTG测试仪。太平洋开发人员还可以使用CPU-X显示你详细的Android设备信息(它将向您展示支持USB OTGUSB主机特性下部分)。
