    Hello,

    there is an Indiegogo campaign for a 3DOF mecanism @599€

    beware that the founding is "flexible": if not completely founded, the money is kept!

    Hmmm have I missed something...seems there is no clear video of it in action and no mention of motion software or how it is intended to interface with games.

    they are showing examples of ski, ride and snow... for which there are no simtools plugins.. so they should have their own software and plugins?!

    It is hard to say what they are showing.

    You only see the mini 3DOF SDP in action unloaded in the video without clearly being driven by a game and a lot of the video has other platforms in it that are clearly not the SDP, like this one:

    Ill believe 500mm/s when i see it move 500mm/s.
