The powerful real-time physics simulation together with the latest animation technology and Volvo's unique operator environment now enables an affordable and compact solution to operator training. Thanks to advanced 3-D graphics coupled with a hydraulically controlled platform, the Volvo Simulators puts a whole new spin on operator training. The operator feels precisely how the machine will react in various situations, allowing training in even the toughest environments and most stressful situations, all in a realistic environment without risk to either one's self, another person, or the machine.
