Microsoft has unveiled a new application which will help users to control some of the Microsoft Office products. Now, with the help of Microsoft’s Office Remote, users can control Word, Excel and PowerPoint presentations from any Windows 8 device.

The Office Remote application is a joint effort between Microsoft Research and the Office team, “We want to make sure that we continue to create tools that deliver the best possible experiences to presenters and audiences.” “The world is constantly evolving, though, and presentations need to evolve with it.” says Darren Edge of Microsoft Research. 

The application is now available and works with all versions of Office 2013 except for Office 2013 RT. You will need a Bluetooth enabled computer to start with, as it will be the medium to connect these devices together. Moreover, users will also need to install a software in the computer, “add-in” to start using a Windows 8 phone as a remote.

For more information feel free to check out the source and watch the video here to know how it works.
