PROJECT BRIEF
FCC brief required to design and build a 4 axis motion bed control interface, to provide motion control and movement sequence control of a large gimbal platform for the purpose of moving a 6 ton 60 foot yacht and 8 ton yacht cabin. With modified automation software, connected to 900 mm hydraulic rams and closed loop feedback from internally mounted attenuates within the rams, motion simulating a variety of ocean states [calm, moderate, rough, wave hits] was achieved with an emphasis on timing to meet water dumb tanks, water air cannon release, as well as director event timed sequences.
