Patent attributes
An apparatus simulates motion in a virtual environment. The apparatus has a constraining structure mechanically coupled to an adjustable user support system. Rotational movement of the human user is accommodated by rotation of the adjustable user support system within the constraining structure. A stationary friction reducing platform is proximate the constraining structure. A foot platform is configured to be worn on a foot of a human user. The foot platform is configured to engage the stationary friction reducing platform to simulate motion. A motion simulating device is proximate a foot of the human user. The motion simulating device is communicatively coupled to an electronic foot speed measurement device and an electronic measurement device. A measurement system communicatively coupled to the electronic measurement device and the electronic foot speed measurement device. The adjustable user support system is a user support and belt system.
