VR headsets are fantastic for immersion—but pilots still judge a simulator by what their hands touch. Switch feel, knob detents, throw length, and annunciator behavior all have to match the real aircraft, or training value drops fast. That’s where Simtek comes in.
Simtek designs and builds simulated avionics hardware that grounds mixed reality in physical realism: simulated cockpit control panels, simulated instruments, and simulated displays that look, feel, and behave like the real thing—while integrating cleanly with your MR/VR software.
Whether you’re fielding a new lightweight trainer, upgrading legacy devices, or prototyping a blended MR cockpit, Simtek is here to help:
Achieve pilot acceptance with proven tactile fidelity
Reduce integration risk with hardware engineered for simulators from day one
Scale across fleets with repeatable, supportable hardware baseline
Mixed reality is transforming flight training. Simtek makes sure the hardware behind it is just as advanced—and just as reliable—as the visuals in front of the pilot’s eyes.
If you’re planning your next MR/VR-enabled simulator, Simtek is ready to be your avionics hardware partner.
