Abstract :
System requirements were developed for a minimum cost and fidelity simulator appropriate for the study of driving behavior. The simulator is composed of three sub-systems: a pulse-width modulation recording and reproducing unit to provide road geometry, a vehicle dynamics computer to solve the automobile motion equations, and a cathode-ray tube display that provides a representation of the visual information required by the driver.
