The finest luxury rides, hi-fi, design and tech
AXSIM's Formula Simulator made this year’s WIRED list of the twelve luxury objects and projects the WIRED editors are most intrigued and impressed by...
This remarkable F1 simulator is designed using tech developed to train fighter pilots, which, due to its unbeatable realism (albeit without the crumple zones and fire hazards) was also adopted by F1 teams, and the FIA (the governing body of motorsport). Traditional simulation typically involves cumbersome machines that maneuver the driver on large hydraulic legs and runners, shaking and pitching from side to side, but the Axsim offers four different levels of reality, packed into a system no larger than a family car.
