Found this link to what Toyota is claiming to be the worlds best driving simulator http://www.manufacturingcenter ... ews/stories/feature-1.asp
Quote :Key to this virtual reality is the use of an actual vehicle placed on a platform housed inside a 7.1-m-diameter dome, the ceiling of which serves as a giant 360° concave video screen. As the driver operates the vehicle, a tilt device, vibration apparatus, and other devices manipulate the dome — which has a longitudinal range of movement of 35 m and lateral range of movement of 20 m — under precision computer control. The result is a faithful simulation of the actual sensation of driving, including a sense of speed, acceleration, and riding comfort through turns and other driving maneuvers. Sound effects make the experience even more real. Amazing.
