It's possible to use Android hardware emulation[1][2] for multi-touch
and sensors.

Steps
1) Install SdkController APK[3] on a android phone.
2) Connect the android phone with developer mode enabled to the computer which will run the emulator via usb cable.
3) Run adb forward on computer to enable port forwarding
$ adb forward tcp:1970 localabstract:android.sdk.controller
4) Launch SdkController on the Androind Phone
5) Launch the emulator with multitouch emulation enabled.
add " -screen multi-touch" option for /usr/share/android/emulator/out/host/linux-x86/bin/emulator-x86
or edit /home/chihchun/.local/share/ubuntu-emulator/*/hardware-qemu.ini
6) The user should be able to see the screen and issue touch event from the android to the emulator.
