Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is an amplification method of genetic materials and is used in almost every process that includes genetic material treatment. Conventional PCR machines control the process with a computer that is connected with a wire, limiting the mobility and requiring an expensive, high technological installation skill. This paper utilizes the wireless Bluetooth technology to resolve such problems, enabling the user to control the PCR process with a smartphone. The PCR machine is paired with a smartphone, and a protocol that can control the PCR machine is integrated in the smart phone. By controlling the PCR machine with a smartphone many advantages can be achieved from enabling PCR machines to be installed in an environment that does not provide wired networking, reduce the cost and improvement in convenience of control and mobility.
