Abstract
A simulator intended for driver/vehicle applied research and driver behavior studies is described. Designed and developed by Dynamic Research, Inc. in Torrance, CA, it features a 180 deg forward field of view, an animated graphics roadway scene, modular vehicle dynamics models, instrumented cabs with steering control loaders and aural cueing, an electrohydraulic hexapod motion base with ±2 ft of stroke in each leg, and system operation and data acquisition functions. Automobile and motorcycle cabs are available. Studies to date have considered steering and pedal controls layout, high speed brake in turn, and driver workload related to the use of an in-dash navigation and route guidance system.
