Abstract: A system including of a set of connected articulated joints are mounted to a motion simulator, which are controlled at one end by an operator with their hands. This system of connected articulated joints gives the operator the sensation of operating a mechanical or nonmechanical device, when counterbalanced reducing fatigue of moving controls freely for sustained periods of time.

Abstract: A system that enables a user to simulate the reloading of a magazine fed hand operated device used in a simulation. The user may eject the physical magazine using the magazine ejection button on the hand operated device, and then engage that same magazine which has been stopped from being fully ejected from the hand operated device's magazine housing by a magazine retention mechanism. An internal magazine engagement sensor registers with the simulation that the magazine has been ejected by the user and then has been re-engaged when the magazine is fed back into the housing and locked in by the hand operated device's locking mechanism.
