Cruden Hexatech Awesome Racing Simulator
We have all seen racing simulators, just about every kid I know loves them. It’s easy to see why,with your heart pumping and the adrenaline flowing. The one you see below I can guarantee will out race any racing game simulator you have ever seen by far. This thing is awesome, and one of the most expensive games on the planet, the Cruden Hexatech will cost you $191,000.
That’s a lot of cash for a game eh! What makes this interactive motion-based racing simulator cost so much is that it is suspended on a computer controlled; mechanical driven hexapod, and it allows for simulation of F1, NASCAR, WRC and Le Mans racing. The maker (Cruden) says it uses the same professional equipment relied upon by Formula 1 teams and other top levels of international motor-sport, which provides the most realistic and accurate motorsport experience available.

This motor racing machine gets feedback to the motion and force feedback cabinet from the chassis, track, tire, suspension settings, drive trains, aero load, steering, brakes, and various driver aids, allowing for a real life like simulation. Naturally you are not going to find this in too many homes for private use unless your rich and famous, but you will see this rig at a number of major theme parks and simulator centres.
The brain of the simulator and its interactive motion system encompasses clever motion cuing and force feedback algorithms – the complex and critical maths translating driver input into motion response. It is this rare expertise, spawned from years working in the flight and military simulation industry, that attracts serious engineering teams to Cruden. Our latest software innovations include a unique workspace optimisation feature called Dynamic Workspace Management (DWM)) and a web server-based user interface.
Best of all, if your a laymen such as myself it uses three 42-inch screens to drool over, check out the video!

Thanks for the correction, changed. Working long hours on this blog. Again thanks
It is a hexapod instead of a tripod. And it has not hydraulic but mechanical driven cilinders.
