Custom-Built Simulators

Our simulators are designed to fully immerse the driver in the virtual environment, allowing for better practice and preparation for the real world. We have a proven track record of helping drivers to go faster after over 10 years in the simulation business.

Technology

  • Perception is reality.

    A unique 1:1 field of view system allows our simulators to fully immerse you in the virtual environment, ensuring you can focus solely on the driving experience - no distractions, no missed apexes. Advanced rendering motion compensation also drastically reduces instances of motion sickness versus other simulators.

  • Scan to plan.

    While we have pre-engineered offerings (Audi R8 GT3/GT4, Oreca 07 LMP2), we can accommodate almost any chassis in our rig ecosystem, engineering the best solution for the vehicle at hand. We utilize a number of techniques in the design and manufacturing of our simulators, including 3D scanning, CAD modeling, FEA (finite element analysis), CNC machining, and 3D printing.

  • Feel every bump.

    IER’s custom motion control software allows for matching the simulated vehicle’s roll, pitch, and heave attitudes 1:1. With 300mm (12 in) of travel at up to 500 mm/s and 2G, you will feel exactly how the car is responding to the road underneath it.

  • Overload your senses.

    High fidelity input to the driver is a core focus of our simulators. Accommodating up to 32Nm of steering torque and 150 kgf of braking force, the essentials of driving are well-covered. A seat belt tensioning system additionally offers G-Force emulation, helping to more closely replicate the feeling of braking, acceleration, and cornering in the real car. Tactile transducers transmit the vibration of the engine and chassis to your sim, giving further sensory cues of the car’s behavior.

  • No blind spots.

    Our 220 degree, 2.5m tall, 5.5m diameter screen encompasses the entirety of your view in the simulator. Three ultra low latency projectors run at 4k/60Hz (4k) or WQXGA/120Hz (1600p) and 5500 ANSI lumens a piece, lighting up the entire room with the virtual world.

  • Real cars, real parts.

    We can design your rig around your needs. Every button in the right place, each display pixel perfect, ensuring you are prepared for your next race weekend.

Frequently asked questions

  • There is a significant range depending on the given project and the desired feature-set of the simulator. Please send us an email or fill out our contact form and we can put together a custom quote.

  • In-Home: <1mo pending lead times.

    Full-Sized: Depending on the type/complexity of simulator and the health of our supplier network, lead and production time can range from 2-4 months.

  • Our in-home simulators can be assembled on-site (3-4 days) or at IER and then picked up or shipped.

    For our full-sized simulators, production is done at IER and the simulator is then shipped to the buyer. Installation is then typically a 3-7 day process, with certain items being assembled on-site. Building/space requirements will be discussed on a per project basis.

  • Our desire to produce simulators was founded more out of necessity than all else. After years of working with professional racing clients on the software side, we observed consistent inadequacies in existing simulator offerings. Laggy motion, lack of proper field of view calibration, and “entertainment first, simulation second” production philosophies were just a few of the areas that seemed commonly lacking. Wanting to provide the best overall experience possible for our clients, we decided to produce our own simulators.

    We will be the first to say that each brand has its merits, and an IER simulator will not be the best choice for every prospective buyer. Some simulators may look prettier, some may cost less, but we are confident that none will provide the overall simulation accuracy or engineering fidelity of an IER simulator. For optimizing on-track performance, look no further.
