Abstract
A guest operating system, launched by executing an application associated with a host operating system, is provided with access to a light sensor 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 light sensor 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 light sensor data from the light sensor. The retrieved light sensor data is provided to the first application via the second application and the hardware abstraction layer.
