An emulator mimics (obsolete) hardware (ie. electronic components) in order to run a (obsolote) Operating System.
This is different from Virtualization where there is no (or minimal) emulation of hardware performed. Virtualization software uses hardware of the machine it runs on and acts as a gateway to share resources between the host-machine and the virtualized Operating System.
