Perhaps Corona could support this Vimov simulator that runs on the iPhone and sends touches as well as accelerometer, GPS, compass, and other info back from the iPhone to the simulator on the computer. I think you would need to include their library in the test builds for the simulator.

Hello Phil!
I am currently developing a Corona iPhone/iPad simulator for Windows, Linux and MacOS X - and the possibility to “remote control” the simulator through an iPhone is already on my roadmap. However, I thought of a small Corona application sending the data to the simulator rather than using a third-party tool (it’s not difficult to implement and I won’t have to worry about another component)
I plan to release that simulator version around midth of march. A “proof-of-concept” (without remote-control) is already publically available, a “real” version should be published in the beginning of next week.
Kind regards,

No worries! We have a working prototype version of such an application full with multitouch, accelerometer, GPS, orientation, memoryWarnings, pretty much every event you could possibly get from the iphone/android now sent directly to the corona simulator. We are waiting for 3rd party tools approval from Ansca. We hope to get this out soon!

Wow…thats just great!
PS: How much would be it when released then?

Stay tuned for some YouTube videos displaying the new prototype application. After you take a look, we want the people of the corona community to decide how much they would pay for such an application. Few features to consider:
The iPhone/iPad/android phone/android tablet of your choice can relay:
Location Events (GPS)
Multi-touch Events
Accelerometer Events
Orientation Events
Compass Events
Directly to the corona simulator with minimal changes to your code. All you need to do is drop 1 line of code in the beginning of your app and that’s it! No changing things around and re-coding for release. All the event listeners you would have used on the device build will be directly called by the remote application. Also, the same code that runs on the simulator can be compiled and tested on the device with no modifications whatsoever.
Oh and one more feature: Ability to record sessions that can be played back later at a frame-by-frame accuracy.

We are proud to announce Corona® Ultimote, the iSimulate® equivalent for Corona®! Complete with all the features of iSimulate® as well as macro recording and real time screen sync technology. What does this mean? Instead of all those graphs shown in iSimulate’s® video, wouldn’t it be much more convenient and interactive for you if the simulator screen was drawn on the device as well?
