Revolutionizing Development: The Power of Real Feel in Simulation!

In the world of training and development, the distinction between "real feel" simulations and those lacking correct feedback is crucial.

Simulation Hardware that does not recreate the environment properly, can definitely be fun and entertaining, but will fall short in providing the realistic experiences needed for genuine skill-building.

SimCraft, and its Real Feel, on the other hand, immerse users in lifelike scenarios, allowing them to engage, learn, and adapt in ways that every other sim integrator simply can't replicate.

Does it feel like the car? If it doesn't feel real, then it's just a game.

Imagine practicing high-stakes situations with realistic feedback that deepens understanding and enhances decision-making skills. This is the present and the future training!

Are you serious about your track time? Then you need a Serious Tool for development.

Let's unlock the full potential training and development by prioritizing solutions that offer real feel. Because when it comes to learning, nothing beats an experience that mirrors reality!

Great innovations come from incredible teamwork. At SimCraft, we rely on the feedback from all of our professional race car drivers to perfect every detail.

Our top priority? Listening to our peers. If it doesn't mimic the real world environment, or if our drivers don't approve a component or feature, it doesn't belong on a SimCraft.

This approach eliminates the usual frustrations of the simulation industry. That realistic feel everyone craves? We've nailed it.

Experience the difference with SimCraft. Feel the realism like never before.

Your Secret Weapon! Higher fidelity starts with our APEX CT - It's as good as it gets.

Driver Training and Development is our Passion! SimCraft has recreated the environment as close to reality as possible. Documented (Ask us about the research)!

Every session, our hardware equips drivers with precise motion cues, fostering faster learning, ingraining accurate muscle memory, and immersing them in an unparalleled experience. This is REAL SEAT TIME allowing you to TRAIN PROPERLY.

The competitive edge you're looking for can be attained at a fraction of a cost of the OEM / manufacturer based solutions.

Many race coaches are eliminating the typical sim racing rigs from their clients' training and moving to the SimCraft method, simply because “Practice makes permanent!”

Are you doing things in your gaming sim that you wouldn't do in a real car because it doesn't feel real? What environment are you training yourself for? For a racing driver that deals in thousandths and hundredths of seconds, the consequences of imperfect training can be significant and very expensive.

Simulation is the recreation of a system or process. If you're evaluating a solution, here's the start. Do you want hardware that matches the software?

The vehicles and track environments in simulation software like iRacing are built with 6 degrees of freedom that operate independent of each other.

Can we all agree that these are the laws of real world physics and they got it right?

Software solved. Now hardware:

SimCraft Motion Technology is manufactured to be real, built modular up to all 6 Degrees of Freedom that operate Independently. This is the only method that matches the principles of how the software is built.

When the Hardware and Software match, you get the true fidelity that a driver needs for training and engineering. That's why SimCraft feels real. Proprietary hardware, proprietary motion technology to match ANY software.

What's the difference between a Manufacturer like SimCraft and Sim Racing Integrators like the rest of the industry?

Every other hardware integrator bolts components onto chassis solutions with varying degrees of freedom, re-using someone else's motion platform, dependent on the other actuators to deliver feedback.

They also disconnect the "windshield" from the chassis, moving the chassis around and leaving the visuals static. This is also not a recreation of the environment.

These variables have been documented by neuroscientists from multiple accredited universities across the country. These mismatches from how the software is built cause confusion in the brain and the translational seat time is extremely limited. We have the documentation, if you want to understand it, please ask us.

The insight from Scott Pruett says it all. Thankful for his involvement to deliver the best, most realistic, scientifically validated, environment recreation in the industry.

This year marks the 25th Anniversary of the Original SimCraft. The 3DOF Flight Simulation Solution (Roll, Pitch, Yaw) built by SimCraft Co-Founder William MacDonald in his basement was a tinkering project with unbelievable potential.

We celebrated 25 years of our product at the beginning of 2023, and as the year closes out, we celebrate the successes of the drivers and teams that trust our brand.

Congratulations to all of the SimCraft clients for their on-track successes in 2023. The results are almost unbelievable: 96 on-track wins and 17 championships. Yes, Physics Matters for Translational Seat Time.
