Motion Plus Platform

Built to provide chassis motion with precision and accuracy to complete the user experience. The Motion Plus Platform provides a new level of realism and immersion for motion to become a natural progression of the simulation journey. To close the gap between real and virtual, telemetry data from gameplay is transferred through the software and translated into precise and accurate movement in the hardware, with acceleration of up to 1100mm per second²

Focusing on movement of the chassis during the development phase, the Motion Plus Platform translates crucial simulation effects like bumps, braking, acceleration, gear shifts and road effects into accurate and precise movements felt by the user in their cockpit. The user is able to roll into every corner with speed and precision, with up to 21 degrees/second of velocity roll, while braking and accelerating effects can be felt at up to 8 degrees/second to allow the user to adapt and stay in control.

Rather than industrial or adapted actuators, the Next Level Racing® Motion Plus Platform uses advanced technology and manufacturing developed from the ground up, purely for simulation. Through magnetic encoders attached to the motor shaft, the Motion Plus Platform is able to provide precise feedback from the gameplay to the hardware. This further provides cues to close the gap between real and virtual for an immersive experience.

With a multitude of configurations, the Next Level Racing® Motion Plus Platform allows to adapt and design your own custom motion experience. A singular unit of Motion Plus platform will provide the user with 2-DOF experience, and allows them to upgrade to a 3-DOF with an addition of a second unit offering pitch, roll, and heave. The combination of different Next Level Racing® Motion Platforms and the Motion Plus Platform, can provide up to 4-DOF.

• Single Motion Plus Platform: Chassis 2 DOF
• 2 X Motion Plus Platform: Chassis 3-DOF
• Motion Plus Platform + Motion Platform V3: Chassis 2 DOF & Seat 2 DOF (Combined 2 DOF)
• 2 X Motion Plus Platform+ Motion Platform V3: Chassis 3 DOF & Seat 2 DOF (Combined 3 DOF)
• Motion Plus Platform + Traction Plus Platform: Combined Chassis 4 DOF

The Next Level Racing® Motion Plus Platform is a robust product that is built for commercial-grade use, and is backed with a 1-year warranty for commercial customers. Over the years, hundreds of Next Level Racing® motion platforms have been deployed in VR and commercial centres around the world. The Motion Plus Platform has been built with adaptability and precision in mind as the commercial uses of the Motion Plus Platform are endless for training and research purposes.

The motion platforms work in unison with the Next Level Racing® Platform Manager Software, which has undergone a major redesign to incorporate the Motion Plus device to work in perfect harmony. The Platform Manager is a professional specialized software that is click and play with all major racing and flight titles on PC. Updates are constant to support new titles upon their release. The Platform Manager is a powerful complex engine, yet it is user-friendly, meaning you can easily adjust the intensity of motion, bumps, roll and pitch with the click of a button. You can also adjust the intensity of effects on each individual Motion unit when pairing with the Motion Platform V3 and Traction Plus Platform. Little to no technical support is required for assembly and operation, you can install the platform with ease and be up and racing/flying with motion in less than an hour.
