CAR DRIVING SIMULATOR TRAINING PEDAGOGY
Virage Simulation provides a cost-effective, realistic car driving simulator environment for promotional, educational and research activities.
Our driving simulator is built with the most advanced simulation software available in the industry using a sophisticated driver environment built with actual car components providing a realistic feel of all controls.
The VS300 car driving simulator system is a high fidelity fully immersive mobile car driving simulator providing the best blend of quality, functionality and cost. High quality graphics and sound provides a cost effective simulated driving experience in a real car cockpit environment without the real-world consequences should the student driver make a mistake. Our training curriculum library allows progressive driver training from beginners to experts. The car driving curriculum has been approved by government authorities as a replacement for a portion of the in-car driving course provided by driving schools.
The VS300 car driving simulator with the optional mobility package allows quick installatoin for use in different locations. As an option, transportation cases are available or a full transportation solution such as a trailer-based mobile laboratory can be provided.
Virage Simulation offers all the services and support required to realize your projects. We have expertise in scenario creation for driver education and driver evaluation from novice to experienced driver.
Research is part of our daily activities being involved in a multitude of projects. We can help you build the environment to validate your hypothesis.
CAR DRIVING SIMULATOR CABIN
The Virage Simulation car simulator system consists of an open cabin with the driver seat and center console of a compact car, a fully functional simulated instrument and warning light cluster and a wide visual display.
A center console automatic and manual transmissions are available, including an optional conversion kit allowing quick and easy changes.
The steering wheel includes a dynamic electrical load unit allowing for the simulation of the force felt on the steering wheel during the turning maneuvers and feedback from the road surface such as holes, road shoulder or even rolling over a sidewalk.
CAR DRIVING SIMULATOR VISUAL SYSTEM
The visual optical system consists of a five-channel PC-based image generator and three 46” LCD displays that provide 180 degrees front view. The high-resolution system generates 1920 x 1080 pixels per front display, 60 Hz refresh frequency, as well as antialiasing and anisotropic filtering for high quality, stable real time rendering.
Rear view and side view mirrors are simulated through a window inset within the main screen.
A full set of visual scenes reproduces city, highway, industrial, farmland and mountainous environments is included. Winter scenes, rural roads and various atmospheric conditions are available and can be used within the scenarios to recreate different driving conditions.
CAR DRIVING SIMULATOR SOUND SYSTEM
A high fidelity stereo sound system provides realistic directional sound cues correlated with road conditions, engine RPM and speed. Additional realism is provided by sounds from other vehicles, including the simulation of the Doppler Effect.
CAR DRIVING SIMULATOR TRAINING PEDAGOGY
Comprehensive Learning:
The simulator training scenarios cover basic driver training, evaluation and advanced training under different road, traffic and weather conditions. Lessons and objective evaluations can be performed with or without an instructor. Scenario design is based on proven pedagogical principles. Special attention is given to shifting and advanced training such as energy efficient driving and hazard perception.
Training Control:
The driving simulator operator station is an easy-to-use system providing comprehensive control of the simulator learning environment. It will allow the most novice to the most expert instructor to complete his or her training sessions in a very efficient and productive manner. Student and instructor management functions enable the operators to organize and monitor the training activities according to the organization’s already existing driver-training management system.
