MATLAB: Android sensor support via Wifi possible

Question

Hi there,

Is it possible to connect my Andriod device to MATLAB R2015a, without using a USB cable – perhaps via wifi?

This is because I want my Android device to independently transmit data back to my laptop without having the USB cable physically connected.

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

Yes. http://www.mathworks.com/help/supportpkg/mobilesensor/ug/get-started-with-android-sensors.html

Using MATLAB Connector, connect your Android device to the computer running MATLAB, via Wi-Fi or your cellular network. [...]

so the USB cable is not used.

Note: at this time only Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note2 are supported.
