KAIST interactive bicycle racing simulator: the 2nd version with advanced features

摘要

This paper presents the KAIST interactive bicycle racing simulator system, which consists of a pair of bicycle simulators. The rider on the racing simulator experiences realistic sensations of motion, while being able to see the other bicycle simulator and having the audio-visual experience of riding in a velodrome or on the KAIST campus. The 2nd bicycle of the racing simulator system consists of a bicycle, a 4-DOF platform, a handlebar and a pedal resistance system to generate motion feelings; a real-time visual simulator a HMD and beam projection system; and a 3D sound system. The system has an integrating control network with an AOIM (Area Of Interest Management) based network structure for multiple simulators.
