Methods and systems for image acquisition device virtualization are described herein. A user of a client computing device may access a remote operating system running on a host computing device via a client application running on a local operating system of the client computing device. An image acquisition device such as a scanner may be connected to the client computing device and the user may wish to use the image acquisition device to acquire image data (e.g., scan a photograph). In order for an image application (e.g., a photo editor) running on the remote operating system to read in the image data from the image acquisition devices, the remote operating system of the host computing device may intercept a service call from the image application at a service layer and redirect the service call, via a virtual channel, to the local operating system of the client computing device.
