The cyberTRUCK™ Truck Simulator is designed to provide an excellent training system for heavy vehicle operators and offers maximum flexibility for easy integration with existing operator training programmes.

cyberTRUCK™ is a "virtual truck", constructed to accurately replicate the interior of a typical heavy vehicle. The student sits in a conventional driver's seat and interacts with the simulator via a configurable stick shift transmission, pedals, steering wheel and full dashboard and instrument panel. The driver's interface is accurate down to lights, park and trailer brakes, hooter, steering column, indicators and pedal controls. The standard system is delivered with the capability of configuring the simulation to various training options, including different gearbox, engine and articulation characteristics. The simulated vehicle dynamics are based on mathematical models that use actual vehicle information to provide accurate behavioral realism.

The driver views the 3D simulated world on a high-resolution wide screen monitor and virtual rear view mirrors. An integrated audio system reproduces realistic sound effects such as engine and wind noise, hooting sounds, skidding effects and so forth. The entire simulated cab is mounted on a one degree of freedom motion platform that provides the driver with realistic attitude and motion cues during the simulation.

As the driver navigates the world all aspects of driving are continuously monitored by the simulation computer, including adherence to national procedures, response to emergency conditions, driving techniques and economic performance in terms of fuel use, tyre and brake wear, engine wear and other such costs.

The flexible nature of the cyberTRUCK™ Truck Simulator makes it ideal for all types of driver training centers, educational establishments, and government and private transport organizations. It is aimed at driver screening, beginner training, refresher training, driver evaluation and driver improvement.

The cyberTRUCK™ Truck Simulator consists of an aluminium cab structure within which is mounted the driver's seat, the computing sub-system, the monitor, and the various prefabricated instruments and controls. The entire cab is mounted upon an AC driven motion base with omni directional castors for portability.
