A device for simulating a wheelchair journey including: • a computer adapted to simulate the evolution of a virtual wheelchair in a virtual environment; • display means adapted to display said evolution; • support means for a real wheelchair including: • a plate on which said real wheelchair is fixed, said plate being able to pivot around a fixed point, • sensors associated with the real wheelchair adapted to transmit to the computer movement command information for the real wheelchair, the computer adapting the evolution of the virtual wheelchair depending on the movement command information received, characterized in that said support means further include: • a fixed horizontal lower plate having two horizontal axes to which four pulleys are orthogonally fixed, two rotary engines and two cables, each cable having its ends fixed to the pivoting plate, passing through the two pulleys placed on the same axis and being driven by one of the engines such that the engine rotation causes a corresponding inclination of the pivoting plate, • actuators adapted to control said two rotary engines so as to move in inclination said support means depending on commands emitted by the computer, causing a corresponding inclination of the pivoting plate, such that the inclination of said support means is in accordance with the evolution environment of the virtual wheelchair. • a computer adapted to simulate the evolution of a virtual wheelchair in a virtual environment; • display means adapted to display said evolution; • support means for a real wheelchair including: • a plate on which said real wheelchair is fixed, said plate being able to pivot around a fixed point, • sensors associated with the real wheelchair adapted to transmit to the computer movement command information for the real wheelchair, the computer adapting the evolution of the virtual wheelchair depending on the movement command information received, characterized in that said support means further include: • a fixed horizontal lower plate having two horizontal axes to which four pulleys are orthogonally fixed, two rotary engines and two cables, each cable having its ends fixed to the pivoting plate, passing through the two pulleys placed on the same axis and being driven by one of the engines such that the engine rotation causes a corresponding inclination of the pivoting plate, • actuators adapted to control said two rotary engines so as to move in inclination said support means depending on commands emitted by the computer, causing a corresponding inclination of the pivoting plate, such that the inclination of said support means is in accordance with the evolution environment of the virtual wheelchair. • a plate on which said real wheelchair is fixed, said plate being able to pivot around a fixed point, • sensors associated with the real wheelchair adapted to transmit to the computer movement command information for the real wheelchair, the computer adapting the evolution of the virtual wheelchair depending on the movement command information received, • a fixed horizontal lower plate having two horizontal axes to which four pulleys are orthogonally fixed, two rotary engines and two cables, each cable having its ends fixed to the pivoting plate, passing through the two pulleys placed on the same axis and being driven by one of the engines such that the engine rotation causes a corresponding inclination of the pivoting plate, • actuators adapted to control said two rotary engines so as to move in inclination said support means depending on commands emitted by the computer, causing a corresponding inclination of the pivoting plate, such that the inclination of said support means is in accordance with the evolution environment of the virtual wheelchair.
