What does Dynamic Driving Simulator mean, what does Dof mean, what are motion actuators?
What is a Dynamic Driving Station and how does it work?
In this article we try to give effective answers…
Dynamic vs Static Driving Station
A Dynamic Driving Simulator reproduces realistic motion effects thanks to the movement of the platform on which the Simulator body is mounted.
This is why we talk about Dynamic Driving Station, which is different from static driving stations and their respective Static Driving Simulators.
We consider Dynamic Simulators as products of more advanced technology, higher quality and higher professionalism given the ability to reproduce driving sensations more faithful to reality, suitable for better training of drivers as well as for greater involvement in the driving experience.
Dynamic Driving Stations are therefore of a higher standard and value, which is also reflected in higher prices.
But how does the motion technology of Dynamic Professional Driving Simulators work?
Let's see some details...
Motion Actuators: What They Are and What They Are Used For
Motion Actuators are the devices that allow the mobile platform to simulate the forces and accelerations felt in a real car or motorbike.
There are different types of actuators, such as electric, hydraulic or pneumatic actuators, depending on the power, speed and precision required.
How much does the cost of the motion actuators affect the final price of the Simulator?
Motion actuators for simulators can have very variable costs, depending on the number, type and quality of the same. They range from a few hundred euros for DIY or artisanal solutions, to several thousand euros for professional or engineered systems.
DOF – Degree of Freedom: What They Are and What They Are For
DOF stands for degrees of freedom, or the number of independent movements a moving platform can make to simulate the forces and accelerations experienced in a real car.
There are several types of dof, but the most common are 2, 3 and 6.
- 2 DOF: A 2 DOF dynamic driving position can tilt forward and backward (pitch) and from right to left (roll);
- 3 DOF: A 3-DOF dynamic driving platform adds up and down (heave) motion;
- 6 DOF: A 6 DOF driving simulator also includes rotation around the axes (yaw, pitch and roll) and displacement along the axes (surge, sway and heave).
Driving simulators with higher DOFs offer a more realistic and immersive experience, but they are also more expensive and complex to build and operate.
For this reason, the higher the number of Degrees of Freedom, the higher the cost of the Dynamic Driving Simulator will be.
