Revolutionizing driving simulation: introducing the Driver-in-Motion Full Spectrum Simulator

This paper presents the Driver-in-Motion Full Spectrum Dynamic Simulator (DiM FSS) by VI-grade, a pioneering advancement in driving simulation. Building on previous models, the DiM FSS is a full-motion multistage simulator providing full 6-DOF large-scale motion, combined with high-frequency NVH transducers at driver touchpoints delivering vibration, along with highly accurate vehicle sound. Unlike conventional simulators, the DiM FSS integrates primary ride motion, secondary ride motion, vibration and sound simulation simultaneously, powered by VI-grade AutoHawk technology. This allows for comprehensive evaluation of handling, ride comfort and NVH in one simulator.
