    This VR enabled motion simulator is headed to the National Science Fair competition, after having won the local and regional titles.

    What the student did was measured user heart rates and compared VR with an Xbox and using a TV to assess the impact of VR.

    I am not sure what motion software is being used, but have sent a message asking for details.

    Probably a Simx kit attached to a wooden frame.

    I had a response from the student which was "Thanks, this was last year when I went to L.A. I didn't win anything considering it's extremely competitive there, but it was still an amazing experience. Also, I was using SimTools. I had way too many problems trying to get my actuators and Assetto Corsa to work with Xsim".
