LucidDriveSC: The Multiple Computer Solution
LucidDrive's Server/Client System LucidDriveSC allows the driving scene view to be split and displayed on multiple monitors, up to a 360° multi-view on a ring arrangement of monitors around the driver.
Every monitor in such a network is driven by its own computer, each running a LucidDrive client session. All such client sessions are controlled by a central LucidDrive server session, which runs on an extra computer.
Hardware
Several third party vendors provide very advanced driving cockpits, up to real-life vehicle chassis prepared for the use in conjunction with driving simulators. Such systems may be turned into a LucidDrive night drive simulator as well.
It is recommended to equip each client machine in the network with a high-end graphics card. The number of client computers (=the number of monitors) is variable and bounded only by the server's power. Up to eight clients are feasible with today's high end PCs running Microsoft Windows™.
A LucidDriveSC setup consists of:
1. base system
2. server module
3. client modules
4. wheels & pedals interface
5. vehicle dynamics module
6. AFS control unit
