New Truck Driving Simulator Now with 3 Screens
Advanced Training Systems (ATS) has introduced what it calls “the very first 3-screen driving simulator,” which can be rolled through a standard doorway and assembled within a couple of hours.
Interestingly, due to the decreasing popularity of manually shifting vehicles, many students have never driven a manual transmission.
The simulator shifting training program provides patented technology, only offered by ATS, allowing the trainee to be completely self-sufficient, no additional instruction or trainer is needed. With the self-directed training, individuals not only become familiar with shifting patterns and operation of a manual transmission, the integrated digital coach educates and modifies behavior when clutching, braking, and learning progressive shifting autonomously.
The behavior modification feature of the digital coach instills repetition of correct behavior and actions, in turn developing proper muscle memory.
The TransMaster Plus contains an OEM gauge cluster with fully functioning controls and dashboard, allowing the trainee to become fully acquainted with the inside of a semi cab.
The result?
When entering the real truck cab for the first time, the student driver / trainee’s chance of stripping gears, breaking shifter knobs, burning out clutches and brakes is dramatically reduced due to their prior simulator training.
In addition, the student has a sense of confidence when sitting in the driver’s seat of a real cab for the first time, providing a much more effective and successful experience during behind-the-wheel training.
Adopting the new system early is Georgia Driving Academy (GDA), a truck driving school located in Conyers, GA,. It took delivery of the very first 3-Screen driving simulator offered by Advanced Training Systems (ATS).
