Abstract: A method for developing and testing an application for a device with one or more sensors using a sensor emulation environment that may allow testing of the application in a programmatic manner. The sensor emulation environment may emulate actual physical sensors. The sensor emulation environment may receive sensor simulation data from multiple types of sources of sensor data. A sensor data engine may receive sensor simulation data from a selected data source via an API. The data engine may provide data values at times that represent operation of a sensor. The sensor emulation environment may further include a sensor interface component that emulates a hardware interface to the emulated sensor in a physical target device such that application components, such as a driver, may interact with the sensor emulation environment.

Abstract: An application can be run in an environment on a host machine. The environment can simulate a machine of a different type from the host machine. A series of events can be received from user input. The series of events can simulate a series of input from a target type of physical peripheral device that is different from a type of physical device used to provide the input. The series of events can be provided to the application for processing, and results of the application processing the series of events can be displayed.
