    PacTrans Technology Transfer Success Story 2019 #1: Advancement of a Heavy Vehicle Driving Simulator

    Oregon State University Professor, David Hurwitz, is the director of the Driving and Bicycling Simulator Lab on the OSU campus. Dr. Hurwitz and his team explore human interactions in the transportation environment via simulation. Recently, his lab has added a heavy vehicle simulator that enables them to investigate a whole new area of human factors including things like truck and bicycle conflict in and around loading zones.

    Dr. Hurwitz recently used PacTrans Technology Transfer Success Story funding to produce a high-quality video that showcases the lab’s capabilities as well as announce the arrival of this new heavy vehicle apparatus. We hope you enjoy this video!
