The Simulated Driver Trainer would first cater to heavy-duty truck drivers. The setup includes a multi-screen display in front of the driver's line of sight. The training driver sits within a real BharatBenz heavy-duty truck (HDT) cabin that is electronically linked to real-world dynamics, giving the driver a realistic multi-sensory experience of any road or terrain on which the truck is operated. Terrain, weather conditions, and other obstacles can be changed remotely using a computer.

According to the firm, the BharatBenz Simulated Driver Trainer provides an immersive multi-sensory digital experience as well as an inclusive training curriculum in five languages and 27 driving modules.

It generates a simulation for drivers to practice and learn on various applications, as well as encourages them toward optimal driving practices for enhanced performance, cost savings, and overall efficiency.
