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.
