For providing a virtual control, a processor identifies a hand of a user forming a specified control activation position in a physical image of the augmented reality display. The processor further presents a virtual control with one or more virtual buttons in a virtual image in the augmented reality display in response to identifying the control activation position.

Providing a virtual control

One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving authentication input, at a device, that is sent to an aggregate service device; requesting file system data, retrieved by the aggregate service device, analogous to data stored on a remote device and data stored on a cloud storage device; receiving at the device, after providing the authentication input to the aggregate service device, the file system data from the aggregate service device; and displaying, on the device, a user interface in the form of a file manager application generated from the requested file system data.

Aggregate service with user interface

One embodiment provides a method, including: sending, from a device, input from a user requesting access to data retrievable by an aggregate service device; sending, from the device, input from the user selecting, from the aggregate service device, a selection of data; and sending a distribution command; wherein the distribution command comprises information related to distributing a pointer indicating the selection of data.

Aggregate service with file sharing

One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, from a client device, a request by a user to access an aggregate service device; authenticating, at the aggregate service device, the user to provide access to at least one remote device; providing, by the aggregate service device, data analogous to data of the at least one remote device; receiving, by the aggregate service device, a selection of data accessible by the user from the at least one remote device; and facilitating data transfer associated with the selection of data. Other aspects are described and claimed.
