Abstract: Enhanced apparatuses, systems, and techniques for coupling network-linked peripheral devices into host computing devices is presented. A method includes, over a network interface of a host device, obtaining an indication of a peripheral device available for associating with the host device. Based on the indication, the method includes initiating instantiation of the peripheral device into a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) subsystem of the host device by at least emulating behavior of the peripheral device over the network interface as a PCIe peripheral device coupled locally to the host system.

Abstract: A toy simulator includes a semi-rigid base that is adapted to be releaseably attached and worn by a child on the front torso of a child. An action arm is connected to the semi-rigid base and includes multiple ranges of motion that allow a child substantial movement of various components of the toy simulator in order to provide multiple layers of movement and imagination for the child.

Abstract: A flight simulating aircraft toy is provided having a harness member adapted to be worn upon the chest of a child, and an aircraft model pivotably supported by the harness member. When the toy is worn by the child, the aircraft model can be manipulated to simulate actual flight movements. The aircraft model can also be removed from the harness for independent use.
