It is additionally suited to most vehicle types and has many training and entertainment applications. This simulator separates generation of 'imaginary' and 'duplicated' forces, being those simulated to replace motion induced vector acceleration forces and those replicated of directly experienced forces, typically as whole of body input; e.g. bouncing and vibration. For the simulated forces, a desired centre of rotation is selected and mechanical elements are arranged in a geometrical configuration such that motion is forced to only occur about the selected rotational point, for up to 360 degrees in two planes. For the duplicated forces, other actuators or devices are added to impart the desired sensations. This invention comprises any embodiment with a geometrically fixed bi-planar rotation centre. Several are described herein. A prototype of one embodiment has been constructed and a preferred embodiment of another proposed, including 7DOF motion, with more contemplated. 5 42 21510 1 17 1
