Abstract
A guest operating system, launched by executing an application associated with a host operating system, is provided with access to a gyroscope associated with a computing device including a processor executing the host operating system. A first application associated with the guest operating system generates a request for gyroscope data. The request is received at a hardware abstraction layer associated with the guest operating system, and the request is sent from the hardware abstraction layer to a second application associated with the host operating system. The request is sent from the second application to a driver executing within a kernel of the host operating system. The driver retrieves the requested gyroscope data from the gyroscope. The retrieved gyroscope data is provided to the first application via the second application and the hardware abstraction layer.
