There are a few classes for this purpose. This one has been updated recently and can detect other browser capabilities besides detecting whether it is being run on a mobile device or not.

    download the zip file from mobiledetect.net above and here is the code to detect the type of device.

    include_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/detect/Mobile_Detect.php';

    function deviceType() { $detect = new Mobile_Detect; $deviceType = ($detect->isMobile() ? ($detect->isTablet() ? 'tablet' : 'phone') : 'computer');

    $_SESSION['DeviceType']=$deviceType;

    return $deviceType; }
