SIMULATORS

DoT simulators are:

  • TECH - easy to set-up / turn-on / upgrade

  • FOOTPRINT - the smallest size in the world

  • QUALITY - best in class highest quality graphics with full Virtual Reality support

  • AFFORDABLE - using many off the shelf components make improvements, replacements, and upgrades a breeze

FLEXIBILITY: Our simulators allow users to seamlessly switch between multi-monitors and virtual reality functionality.

Your buses change and so do our simulators.  Our approach to virtual components allows you to change buses easily.  This results in a scalable, reusable solution that offers longevity to your training offerings.

We combine the simulator hardware with our software, offering the most extensive training programs.  These include teaching over 30 core skills, 100 advanced setting options, and an ever-growing list of scenarios - devised by transit operators and trainers. 

Whether you’re looking for refresher training or setting up a whole driver training curriculum, we have solutions that will fit your needs for today and tomorrow.

SIMULATOR GOALS

DoT Simulators:

  • Are designed to operate buses safely

  • Allow students to learn about the bus components, procedures, best practices, core skills, situational awareness, cognitive load, and scenario practices

  • Offer self-evaluation and allow instructors the option to help replay and revise learning

  • Cover the entire driving lifecycle, from bus awareness to Pre-Trip inspections, to maneuvers, incident avoidance, and advanced driving techniques

The art & science of the Simulator

We worked together with transit authorities to bring the driving simulator into the 21st century, and in doing so, we reduce the footprint, the cost, and the tech headaches associated with traditional approaches.

The NEXT GEN OF SIMULATORS

Virtual Sims = smaller footprint, increased immersion, less tech, and lower cost!

Our Virtual Reality (VR) Simulators redefine efficiency and affordability. By replicating vehicles virtually, they boast a footprint much smaller and are more cost-effective than full-size counterparts.

BETTER SAVINGS & QUALITY: Utilizing VR technology eliminates the need for expensive technical components, offering superior immersion and lifelike experiences. For the price of one traditional simulator, you can enjoy reduced space requirements and fewer technical complexities. Plus, you can fit up to four simulators in the space of one traditional setup, maximizing training capacity and cost-effectiveness.
