Abstract
Driving simulators reproduce actual driving conditions. The main purpose of these systems is to teach trainees how to drive under safe and controlled conditions. In order to have realistic training sessions, simulator manufacturers tend to use controls found in the actual vehicle under simulation. This paper presents two haptic devices that use force control to accurately reproduce the behaviour of a lever and gear shift. The presented devices are advantageous in their compact and versatile design, reaching an optimal balance between low cost and high performance. The devices have been tested by real drivers, and implemented in commercialized train, and bus/truck driving simulators.
