    good evening, here is my 4DOF simulator project on video. my project started 10 months ago, thanks to the Xsimulator forum I was able to find very valuable help for the realization of my project. I thank Xsimulator and the people who make the site move forward.

    My Motion Simulator:
    AC motor, Arduino, 4DOF
    to control the position of the arms I use analog inductive sensors (XS4P18AB120, 4 ... 20mA) instead of potentiometers in order to avoid mechanical problems: risk of breakage, wear of the gears...)
    the system is simple: I use a steel roller with an eccentric hole that moves
    when the platform moves, the detector provides an analog signal of 4mA ...20mA over a distance of 8mm
    this signal is transformed into 0 ... 5V DC by an electronic card that I created and sent to the input of the arduino

    here is the final result of my 4DOF project, the simulator works with F1 23 and a PS5:
