An input device for providing user input to a computing device includes a seat portion allowing a user to sit on the device. The input device further includes several human interface devices having positional sensors that detect changes in rotation or translation of a movable tactile surface with respect to a fixed tactile surface and provide a signal indicative thereof. These signals are used are used by a computer to change an image of virtual fixed and movable surfaces within a head mounted display.

A virtual-reality navigation controller includes a base, a seat, a vertical support to support the seat on the base, and a rotatable connector between the seat and the vertical support to tilt the seat about a rotational center of the rotatable connector in response to directional forces exerted by a user seated on the seat. The virtual-reality navigation controller further includes a motion-detection controller to measure pitch corresponding to the tilt of the seat resulting from the directional forces.

A virtual-reality navigation controller includes a base and a seating portion. The seating portion includes a seat for supporting a weight of a user seated thereon and a back-rest coupled to the seat to move integrally with the seat and to support the user's back. The virtual-reality navigation controller further includes a vertical support to support the seating portion on the base, and a rotatable connector between the seating portion and the vertical support to tilt the seating portion about a rotational center of the rotatable connector when the user is seated on the seat. A radius of an arc formed by the tilting about the rotational center ranges from 300 mm to 800 mm. The virtual-reality navigation controller further includes a motion-detection controller to measure pitch corresponding to the tilt of the seating portion.

An immersive video projection system for a virtual reality simulator includes a plurality of imaging units each configured to project a video image upon a plurality of respective first surface mirrors. The video images reflected off of each of the first surface mirrors are then incident upon a panoramic display having a radius of curvature that matches the radius of curvature of the first surface mirrors, so as to provide a high-fidelity image with reduced artifacts for use in simulating motion of various activities. The immersive video projection system may also utilize an interface system that is configured to provide highly realistic control arrangements that provide realistic levels of feedback thereto, so as to impart a highly realistic and immersive experience to the user of the virtual reality simulator.

The Pilot Seat Positioning Device has a frame which includes a base frame, a lower frame, and an upper frame and four vertical posts extending between the lower frame and the upper frame. Four pistons are located between the base frame. An upper journal is mounted on the upper frame. A lower journal is mounted on the lower frame. An outer ring is mounted to rotate on the upper journal and the lower journal by an upper motor and lower motor. A support ring is mounted to rotate on the outer ring and the support ring is located generally at right angles to the outer ring. The support ring has a support ring gear mounted on it. A support shroud covers the support ring gear. An upper support motor and a lower support motor are mounted on the support shroud. An upper support idler gear and a lower support idler are mounted on the support shroud. An inner ring is mounted to rotate in the outer ring within the support ring. An upper inner union and a lower inner union are mounted on opposite sides of the inner ring. The inner ring includes an inner ring gear mounted on the outer periphery of the inner ring and an inner shroud covering the inner ring and inner ring gear. An upper inner motor and an upper inner idler gear and a lower inner motor and a lower inner idler gear are mounted on the inner shroud. A seat platform extends across the inner ring and is mounted on the inner ring. A seat support member is located generally at right angles to the seat platform and in the same plane as the seat platform. The seat support member is mounted to rotate on the support ring. A pilot seat is mounted on the seat support member and across the support platform. A hydraulic system and an electrical system controls the flow of hydraulic fluid.

A motion simulator in the form of a seat (11) comprising a seat support frame (12) including a seat back (13), in which a seat pan (19) is movably mounted with respect to the seat support frame (12) via motion actuators (20, 21, 22) which impart to the seat pan (19) motion with respect to the seat support frame (12) with at least three degrees of freedom including sway, and control means (34) for determining the motion of the actuators (20, 21, 22) to move the seat pan (19). Many cues involve moving the seat pan in the opposite sense from the simulated direction of movement.

The invention provides a motion simulating device which provides the user with full freedom of motion. Ideally, the motion is coordinated with the user's senses. The motion simulating device may include a generally spherical capsule supported by a number of rollers, at least one of which is a multi-directional active roller which frictionally engages the spherical capsule. This causes the spherical capsule to rotate in any desired direction. The capsule may have mounted within it an interactive solid, which may take the form of an omni-directional treadmill for supporting the user.

A method and apparatus for training are provided in which a training system (10) includes indicators and controls (12) for interfacing with a trainee. A display (16) is used to display graphical representations of operating conditions. By selecting locations on the display (16), the training system (10) is configured to correspond with the operating conditions associated with the selected locations on the-display (16).

The ejection seat simulator is made with a cockpit which can be moved away from a seat so as to provide access to the seat in cases of accident or in cases where repairs are required.The throttle and pull ring are connected with suitable electronic electrical lines which can lead back to the control panel when the cockpit is moved away from the seat. In this regard, the lead lines are long enough so as to permit a desired extent of movement of the cockpit 18.

APPARATUS FOR MAINTAINING THE LIMB OF AN OPERATOR IN A RELATIVELY FIXED POSITION WITH RESPECT TO HIS BODY WHEN HE IS SUBJECT TO AN ACCELERATION FIELD YET ALLOW THE OPERATOR TO MOVE THE LIMB FREELY WITH RESPECT TO HIS BODY. A LEVER ARM MEMBER ADAPTED TO HOLD THE LIMB OF THE OPERATOR IS MOUNTED AT ONE END TO PIVOT ABOUT A PIVOTAL AXIS BY MEANS OF A ROTARY ACTUATOR. THE ROTARY ACTUATOR IS RESPONSIVE TO THE DIFFERENCE OF A SIGNAL REPRESENTING STRAIN PRODUCED IN THE LEVER ARM MEMBER BY THE ACCELERATION OF THE LEVER ARM MEMBER ABOUT THE PIVOTAL AXIS AND A SIGNAL REPRESENTING THE ACCELERATION OF THE PIVOTAL AXIS IN A DIREC-
TION PERPENDICULAR TO THE LONGITUDINAL AXIS OF THE LEVER ARM MEMBER AND THE PIVOTAL AXIS. WHEN THE LEVER ARM MEMBER AND THE ACTUATOR ARE SUBJECT TO A COMMON ACCELERATION FIELD THE MEMBER IS MAINTAINED SUBSTANTIALLY STATIONARY WITH RESPECT TO THE POINT AND WHEN A FORCE IS APPLIED TO THE MEMBER TO PIVOT THE MEMBER ABOUT THE POINT, THE ACTUATOR AIDS THE MOVEMENT OF MEMBER IN THE DIRECTION OF THE APPLIED FORCE.
