ABSTRACT:
A method and system for enabling an auxiliary system, such as a WINDOWS® SIDESHOW™ device, to support enhanced features is provided. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention sets forth a method, which includes the steps of emulating a physical communication channel to establish a virtual communication channel, encapsulating data associated with a first function defined by a first Application Programming Interface (API) and utilized to implement an enhanced feature, and sending the encapsulated data through the virtual communication channel for an embedded operation system (OS) to manage hardware resources of the auxiliary system to perform the enhanced feature.
