Motorcycle Simulator
Motor Simulation, LLC has improves safety for motorcycle riders. It’s cutting-edge technology and the experience of it’s management team has designed and build a fully-interactive, high-definition graphics simulator with a fully movable, reactive motion base that simulates riding a motorcycle in real-time, base upon the parameters of physics and not a gaming engine. No simulator has ever been built in history that is as advanced or with as much current, up-to-date technology. Some modeling software in the system was only introduced to the market in 2009. No flight simulator or medical simulation system comes close in comparison to the level of sophistication of our motorcycle simulator. No simulator has the capability to adapt to as many brands and version as our simulator, including three and four wheeled motorcycles.
Moto-Sim’s simulator will serve three main purposes for which there are at least three distinct markets. The first and most obvious is that it will save lives and promote safety among riders. Second, it will acquaint new riders to the joy and feel of riding a motorcycle without exposure to any danger whatsoever. Third, it will be an engineering tool for motorcycle construction and customization. In other words, the Moto-Sim Simulator is a training/safety tool, a marketing tool and an aid for engineering design—all in one unique system. Respectively, these uses make it perfect for training centers, dealerships, and custom motorcycle designers.
How It Works
Our real-life simulator will work by making the rider feel like he is actually riding a motorcycle and will force him to make the adjustments on the bike necessary to avoid a crash or other dangerous situation. Simulation will allow us to improve safety by letting the rider experience real-time advanced safe braking, effects of alcohol, dangerous traffic situations, negotiating high speed curves and other evasive emergency maneuvers. These are currently largely being ignored and contribute greatly to the inherent danger of riding. Our simulator addresses all of these areas in a manner that has never before been presented to the motorcycle industry or for any other application.
The rider will be allowed to ride under normal conditions and adverse conditions. His maneuvers will then be replayed by the instructor. Mistakes will be reviewed and then the rider will get to correct his mistakes on the bike. By experiencing the scenario directly in a controlled environment, the rider is able to recall the exact sequence of counter maneuvers necessary to correct an error. No other device other than simulation has such an impact, except actual experience on the road, subjecting the rider, oncoming traffic, other riders in his group and passengers to severe damage and even possible loss of life.
The Problem We're Addressing
Recent advances in high definition and interactive technology have made it possible to simulate activities that were impossible to simulate even just two years ago. Of those activities, the motorcycle market is the one that has the most urgent need for a simulation product. At the recent Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) International Conference, earlier this year in Long Beach, California, an exhaustive study concluded that motorcycles are 27 times more dangerous than automobiles. Statistics indicate that over 95% of all accidents can be prevented with proper education, awareness, techniques and training. What is more is that the problem is getting worse—not better.
- In April 2003, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported a 60% increase in motorcycle death rates overall in the five years prior.
This only continues a decade-long trend: the motorcycle death rate jump from 21 deaths per 100 million estimated motorcycle miles traveled in 1997 to 33.4 deaths per 100 million in 2001. In 2009, it is expected that 18 riders will die every day in the United States alone. With gasoline prices climbing to record levels in the foreseeable future, more deaths will occur as untrained and inexperienced numbers of motorcycle riders access our highways.
