Description

From 2002 to 2019, CAFM shared with visitors an immensely popular tractor cab experience as part of its Tractors Exhibition. Using a real-life John Deere tractor cab, visitors of all ages climbed into the cab to experience what it was like to drive a tractor. The simulated tractor ride included motor noises, bumpy movements, steering the steering wheel, selecting a radio station, switching on the headlights, and seeing a field through the windshield.

Over its lifetime the tractor cab was a favourite photo op for more than 1.5million visitors and as a result the simulated experience lost much of its interactive functionality and had to be retired.

Three years later, CAFM is thrilled to be reimagining the simulator, and is using the opportunity to both integrate a digital simulated experience and to focus on all levels of physical, cognitive, and sensorial accessibility.
