Sim Cab with “AeroBall” Game

Take to the skies with the Sim Cab with “AeroBall” game. This is the only example of this simulator in existence. Orginal cost was over 3 million dollars. John Barnes of the Barnes & Noble family had it built in the late 1990’s. The “AeroBall” game is his invention and is an airborne soccer game. Two players can fly. It was designed to be put in shopping malls world wide where other contestants could fly against those in the Sim Cab remotely. The entire Sim Cab sits on a hydraulic motion base and flys like a jet fighter. This is all in 3-D and once served at Space Camp in Mountain View, California.

      Donna,
      Please use the email under “contacts” to ask questions. When we have it up you can ride in it. It takes about 30 minutes to start so we don’t do so unless we have a bunch of folks.
