title: Using Wifi Direct to connect an Android App to PC
body: <p>I am developing an android app which needs to communicate with a PC and exchange real time data. </p>
  
  <p>I am trying to use Wifi Direct to do so (<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/wifip2p.html" rel="nofollow">http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/wifip2p.html</a>). While it is easy to transfer data between two android devices using this technology, I am not sure how I can do the same between an android device and a PC. From what I researched, I found out that the PC needs the 'Intel My Wifi Dashboard' and 'Intel Pro Wireless Tools software' products to be able to use WiFi Direct. </p>
  
  <p>My question is: Is it possible to code an interface or en quivalent Wifi Direct API that can work for PC which can replace these Intel software products so that the PC doesn't have to depend on the installation of these products and my app can directly communicate with PC?</p>
