Amsterdam-based Cruden designs and manufactures racing and driving simulators. It recently supplied Jaguar Land Rover with a 6-DOF (six degrees of freedom) simulator that is used as a virtual engineering tool by design teams at its Gaydon, UK design and engineering facility. In this interview, Matthew Beecham talked with Cruden's commercial director, Frank Kalff about the simulator for JLR, its benefits and the appetite amongst other OEMs to fine-tune a simulator's motion behaviour to suit their brands.
