Terminology
Simulation - in this case, a computer program that is written to simulate
an environment, and then an activity in the environment, that it would be very difficult
or dangerous to do in real life. In all likelihood the activity is something that we may
never be able to do like drive a real race car or fly a real plane.
Simulator - in this case, a computer controlled machine that works inside
and in concert with the simulation program to allow an activity, in the environment,
that we may not be able to do for real, in real life.
DOF - Degree Of Freedom - a description of available motion. There are
a total of six all together. they are: pitch, roll, heave, surge, twist, and sway.
All six can be used in combination to simulate a motion, the better the simulation,
the better the degrees are matched and timed.
Questions
What is the difference between a simulation and a game?
A simulation is designed and executed to follow the same rules as in reality;
the more real the more detailed the simulation, whereas a game can, and will, establish
it's own "reality".
Why should we buy your simulator over the other offerings?
Our simulators are all designed and built to be simple, easy to operate,
and light on maintenance. They are ready to use as soon as they are received, a few
standard hand tools are all that might be needed to assemble and start using them.
We believe that the most important part of our relationship is getting you started, and
keeping you running. Jesler takes pride in it's products, and this extends to service, so
that you see that the focus is returning the unit to service, not profiting from a
disabled machine, while you wait 2 weeks for a foreign part.
