KDDI and Hitachi Systems and Services have teamed up for a project called "micro-VNC," allowing for VNC from a mobile phone. The system supports Windows, Mac and Linux machines.

KDDI and Hitachi Systems and Services announced that they have begun sale of "micro-VNC," an enterprise-level solution for controlling remote PCs by way of au cellular phone

This service, after installing "micro-VNC" o­n an au mobile phone, uses a client software installed o­n the PC. No special hardware is needed, and Windows/Linux/Mac systems are supported. The signal contents are encrypted and compressed, allowing for a secure and smooth remote controlling of a PC even o­n low-speed connections; Hitachi has said this allows for server maintenance and so forth at any time.

"micro-VNC" is offered as a download after registering o­n the website. Control is done o­n the mobile phone's screen, which features zoom/reduce function.

Current supported handsets are the "W21S," "W21CA," "W31SA," "W22SA," and the "A5504T," and support is planned to expand. Furthermore, packet transmission chargers will be incurred when using this application, so it is not subject to "double discount" or "double fixed lite."
