Maximum performance for driving simulators

Good news for automotive companies, suppliers and manufacturers of high-tech simulators: the range of functions of the technically leading, active simulator pedals on the market has now been expanded again. This means that the entire pedal system in the driving simulator can now be represented with active force feedback pedals, the pedal force of which can be controlled in real time – for highly precise simulations and a 100 % realistic driving experience.

Sensodrive is a game changer for simulator development

In the most modern high-tech simulators, the dynamic behavior of any vehicle can now be precisely calculated and reproduced under all conditions. Road type and traffic density are taken into account, as are interactions with other vehicles, weather, wind conditions and brightness.

Sensodrive has been the preferred partner of almost all major simulator manufacturers, automotive companies and suppliers for years in the area of ​​high-end simulator products. Thanks to market-leading torque technology and our globally unique torque-controlled actuators (SensoJoints), our force feedback solutions regularly set new standards.

The new SensoPedals Pro: Simulate every driving situation with the best active simulation pedals on the market

The active SensoPedals Pro from Sensodrive are the leading pedal simulators on the market and open up unique application possibilities thanks to their high-precision force feedback technology.

You can now control the pedal force on the accelerator and brake pedals in real time, for example. The characteristics of the pedal resistance can also be defined using more than 200 support points, which enables the highest precision when simulating a real pedal.

This function is available directly in the GUI software and allows you to design test scenarios with absolute flexibility. From now on, you can switch between different vehicle types in a matter of seconds without the need for mechanical changes.

The active SensoPedals Pro offer another unique advantage: In contrast to passive pedals, it is possible to give the driver actively adjusted force feedback in the simulator. This means that even highly complex scenarios can be represented with absolute realism using the new SensoPedals Pro.

All the advantages of the SensoPedals at a glance

• High-precision force feedback, adjustable in real time
• Absolutely realistic simulation of the driving feel
• Pedal behavior can be freely parameterized using the force-position characteristic curve
• Damping can be individually adjusted for each segment
• A wide variety of software end stops can be freely parameterized (e.g. metal, spring, soft rubber)
• Direct force command with high clock rate (1ms)
• Software-controlled pedal characteristics
• Predefined haptic ABS simulation with a variety of parameters (shape of the wave, frequency, amplitude, ...)
• Active immediate feedback available - kickdown, dropdown, pulsation. CAN 2.0B interface

The SensoPedals Pro are available with various performance options. They can be used as a stand-alone solution or integrated into any environment. Pedal combinations with the passive SensoPedals are also possible.
