US Patent 10429924 Virtual reality simulation system

Virtual reality simulation systems and methods are described for use with a sensory feedback system. The systems and methods include a movement detection mechanism having at least one sensor attached to a mobility simulation device. The movement detection mechanism configured to collect movement and position data of a first reciprocating foot platform of the mobility simulation device in at least a first dimension and a second dimension, and generate movement and position data of the first reciprocating foot platform. A controller computer processor unit may receive the movement and position data and translate the data into a step metric.
