The Pedal Laboratory

The Lab is building a new driving simulator, and Dacey has been assigned the task of testing the real car pedals that are about to be attached to sensors to interface them to the computer. She's brought along four pairs of sandals - two each high and low-heeled, and uses them to mash the pedals all the way down, assess their resistance and placement, and generally give it a "dry" test run. While the brake is a little disconcerting without its load cell to limit travel and simulate hydraulic pressure, the accelerator and clutch are very realistic. Keep checking back with us to follow the progress as the simulator takes shape!

Vika has brought an assortment of shoes to the laboratory to see which ones maximize her comfort and control of the pedals of a stickshift car.

Which will she prefer? There's only one way to find out!

The Lab is building a new driving simulator, and Mileena has been assigned the task of testing one of the driving simulator software packages (games). She's wearing some cute peep-toe sandals, and has the software loaded up and ready to go. She has chosen a small car with an automatic transmission, and a simulated city driving scenario. Off she goes. Anyone care to guess how many times she crashes? Keep checking back with us to follow the progress as the simulator takes shape!
