A new tram simulator for Nordic countries
“Oslo’s tram system is at the forefront of new developments in the sector, with testing on autonomous trams currently being carried out in the city. In this context, Lander Simulations, the acknowledged leading manufacturer of driving simulators for the tram sector in Europe, was selected in 2020 as the official supplier of the new Oslo tram simulator.
In collaboration with Sporveien Trikken, Lander is taking part in the modernisation of the city’s tram system, which aims to improve the efficiency and safety of the service by incorporating state-of-the-art technology. The installation of the simulator has been successfully completed, making it the first advanced tram simulator in the country and one of the most modern in Europe.
Lander’s new simulators are designed to provide an immersive and realistic driving experience. They feature a replica desk, seven high-definition vertical screens with a 210-degree field of vision, surround sound and a motion platform that allows the driver to experience the unevenness of the terrain. In addition, the simulator is programmed to simulate the actual driving conditions of the country’s six tram lines.
The delivery of this simulator is essential to provide the necessary training and preparation of the Oslo tram drivers, ensuring a quality and efficient service for users. This collaboration also reinforces Lander’s position as a leading manufacturer of driving simulators for public transport, demonstrating its commitment to innovation and continuous improvement of its products. With the implementation of these cutting-edge technologies, the Oslo tram system is at the forefront of the industry and demonstrates the city’s commitment to providing a modern and efficient public transport service to its citizens.
In addition, since the company’s initial implementation of the Stockholm Metro simulator in 2012, Lander continues to consolidate its leading presence in the Nordic countries, having successfully implemented a total of six projects to date.”
