Virtual Reality Bobsled Simulator
Research of Andrew Kelly, LeRoy Alaways, Brian Lovrin, and Darla Weiss
Version 1 Bobsled Simulator That thing in the picture is a bobsled simulator. It's kind of like a flight simulator, but simulates driving a bobsled instead of flying a plane. An IBM workstation runs code which calculates the dynamics of the sled in real time. We feed the program track data (Lillehammer, Salt Lake City, Albertville, Calgary) and driver steering input, and it solves the equations of motion and draws a picture on the screen from the driver's point of view. Data is also sent from the workstation to a motion control system which plays a CD of the sounds of a bobsled going down a real run, rolls the cockpit, and provides force feedback to the driver through the steering handles. The idea behind this project is to help train the United States Olympic Bobsled Team. With the simulator the drivers can take as many practice runs in a day as they like (as opposed to 4 or 5 runs maximum when training on ice), work on only one section of a track at a time, practice many different tracks without having to travel, compare their "lines" to other drivers, and get quantitative feedback on how they are doing after each run. There are three versions of the bobsled simulator currently in operation: one in Lake Placid, NY at the

Trivia

Venue: "Spiral," the first artificial ice track in Asia, is in the foothills of Mount Iizuna in the Asakawa district in the northern part of Nagano City. The 1,700-meter track has an elevation of 113 meters and encompasses 15 curves. 1994 Golds: Two-man, Switzerland (Gustav Weder and Donat Acklin in 3:30:81); four-man, Germany (Harald Czudaj, Karestan Brannasch, Olaf Hampel, Alexander Szelig; 3:27:78). Critical Moment: Finding the perfect racing line is the key to bobsledding: The driver struggles with a violently shaking bobsled to keep it on the path that gives the fastest time down the run. In turns, the driver must keep the sled high enough to maintain speed but low enough to avoid going extra distance. KRT How It Works: Nuts and Bolts: Speeds can reach 90 miles per hour, and runs take less than a minute. When braking, the crew feels five times the force of gravity. History: Although sleds have been around for centuries, bobsled racing didn't begin until 1877 in Davos, Switzerland, where a steering mechanism was attached to a toboggan.

11. The PBB Bobsled Game
The purpose of the game is to build the best bobsled and become a tycoon in the process.
http://www.sss.org/~jasons/Interests/Lego/resources/games/bobsled.html
The PBB Bobsled Game
The purpose of the game is to build the best PBB bobsleds, and become bobsled tycoons in the process.
INGREDIENTS
  • PBB.
  • about 15 feet of Mattel `Hot Wheels' orange tracks or similar product.
  • Monopoly paper money or equivalent.
  • A small blackboard/whiteboard or just sheets of paper for the formula rules and the lists of contestants.
  • (useful but not necessary) a small megaphone/PA system for the tournaments.
  • a responsible and imaginative Game Master.
  • two or more teams of contestants.
SETUP
1. Build the sled track. Attach it to a higher place that is easily reachable by all contestants. The track must be straight. It must start flat and drop almost immediately, have a downhill section and a fairly long flat section at the bottom. It may have bumps, but if they are too big the sleds will jump and fall out too often. The flat part must be long enough so that your initial sleds will not get anywhere close to its end. 2. Divide the contestants into teams. One or two-person teams are the best. Give start-up money to each team.
GAME
The game consists of a sequence of tournaments. Each tournament is a competition for a specific bobsled formula. Formulas establish simple parameters of the sleds, such as: maximum number of pieces, maximum length, minimum length, having only certain pieces in contact with the track, etc. etc. Make up your own formulas, as they depend on your setup and the available PBB pieces. When I played this, the best pieces were the blue PBB rails, particularly the curved ones, so most formulas were based on number and placement of those rails. If you don't have those rails, experiment.
