The Motion Integrated G-Seat is a revolutionary new device for simulating motion and acceleration in seat-based simulators (airplanes, helicopters, cars, boats, spaceships...)
It combines the strenghts of motion platforms AND G-seats, maximizing the effects and advantages of both systems.
Its patented mechanism* features a combination of seat movement, pressure and vibration applying elements, and a tensioning seat harness to provide instantaneous, quickly reversible and sustainable sensations of motion and acceleration.
* US Patent 11.810.477 B2 / European Patent 3788613 / International Publication Number WO 2019/211062
Why we believe the Motion Integrated G-Seat is superior to other motion systems:
- The effects provided are instantaneous, can reverse direction swiftly and most importantly, are sustainable. This means they can last as briefly or as long as the simulated acceleration does.
- The Motion Integrated G-Seat is also able to simulate sustained negative (upward) G forces, which no motion platform is able to provide, but which is essential not only in fighter or aerobatic aircraft, but also in commercial aviation training (eg. for UPRT).
- The system moves the users body (and eyepoint) exactly like real acceleration would do. It feels and looks right inside any fixed-based cockpit and is also fully compatible with VR (virtual reality), no motion compensation software is needed.
- No need to move the entire simulator like a motion platform: The Motion Integrated G-Seat has a very low footprint at a total width of only 540 mm (21,3 in), so it can easily fit into any cockpit simulator. In combination with VR, the seat can also be used as a standalone system.
- While flight simulators are the main field of application for the Motion Integrated G-Seat, it also provides equally excellent motion feedback in car- and racing simulators.
Availability of the Motion Integrated G-Seat:
The system will be produced in Austria, Europe and is currently (end of 2024) in the final stages of production development and testing. Its commercial availability is scheduled by early 2025 for EU wide sales.
The Motion Integrated G-Seat will be on display at the AERO Expo 2025 in Friedrichshafen, Germany.
