KAIST interactive bicycle simulator

This paper presents key technologies and system integration issues of the KAIST interactive bicycle simulator. The rider on the bicycle feels the motion and has the visual experience as if he/she is riding in the campus of the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology. The simulator consists of a bicycle, a Stewart platform, a magnetorheological handle, a pedal resistance system to generate motion feelings, a real-time visual simulator and projection system, sub-controllers and an integrating control network.
