D-BOX Technologies Inc., a developer of haptic and immersive entertainment solutions, and Playseat, a global gaming gear company for racing and flight simulation cockpits, as well as game seats, have announced a partnership to bring D-BOX’s haptic technology to Playseat’s sim racing chassis and flying simulation cockpits.
The Playseat D-BOX Motion Platform has been specifically designed to integrate D‑BOX actuators and will be available to the company’s global reseller network in the coming weeks.
“Everyone knows Playseat, they’ve been in business for nearly 25 years with their first revolutionary racing chair hitting the market in 1995. Since then, they’ve defined the sim racing market by bringing innovative designs you can find today in racing cars, to millions of users around the world. By partnering with D-BOX, Playseat continues to combine the best designs while offering racers the most realistic and immersive haptic experience on the market,” says Sébastien Mailhot, president and CEO of D-BOX.
“This partnership combines the expertise of two industry veterans in sim racing and flight simulation, and we’re really proud to collaborate on creating a truly unique experience in the entertainment sector. And like D‑BOX, they are an official license partner for the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile – FIA.”
