Abstract

An example system for generating hardware device input includes a gesture detector to detect an input device trigger from one of two coupled touch-enabled displays. The example system also further includes a redirector to intercept touch data from a triggered touch-enabled display. The example system further includes an emulator to generate hardware input data based on the intercepted touch data and send the hardware input data to an operating system. The example system also includes a user interface to display a virtual input device on the triggered touch-enabled display and receive touch data via the virtual input device.
