Virtual reality promises to truly immerse you in games and locations but one firm has taken this to another level.
Engineers in the Czech Republic have built a series of racing game simulators designed to let players feel like they're driving a real car.
And a video showcasing the simulator shows it making stomach-churning drops, twists, turns and jolts as the driver users the built-in pedals.
The panoramic racing simulator is one of a range of game simulators built by Czech company Elsaco.
It has four moving legs and three 27-inch 2D LED displays to give a panoramic view plus an accelerator, brake and clutch pedal.

The simulator uses data about the position of the car, speed and G-force directly from the game and it moves the cockpit to match these data points.
This means it turns into corners, drivers feel vibrations based on the terrain they are driving over as well as experience G-force overload when accelerating or braking up to 2G.

Elasco demonstrated the simulators at the Geneva Motor Show and it will be on display at this years Autosport International in Birmingham, UK in November.
This means it turns into corners, drivers feel vibrations based on the type of terrain they are driving over as well as experience G-force overload when accelerating or braking up to 2G.
Although the simulator is only designed for racing games, the makers said this includes a wide range including rally games, circuit races and other virtual tracks.
Other simulators in the range include a 3D model, with a 47-inch 3D LED display, as well as a 2D version.
