D-BOX (DBO) is working to combine its high-fidelity haptic feedback with Trak Racer’s chassis.

Through this partnership, D-BOX and Trak Racer will capitalize on the rapidly growing sim racing market, as well as the flight simulation market, while providing users with an augmented experience that allows them to feel the most subtle details that you could normally only feel in a real car or plane, such as air pockets or bumps on the track.

The value of the haptic components to be sold by D-BOX under this agreement is estimated at C$1.33 million.

The partnership aims to provide the best and most realistic haptic experience to sim racers around the world. The new Trak Racer chassis will be the first chassis equipped with five of D-BOX’s new G5 actuators and will be available in late 2023.

Sébastien Mailhot, President and CEO of D-BOX, said that Trak Racer is known for providing gamers and sim racers or pilots with platforms of the highest quality.

“When you combine their international footprint and prominence in the industry with our expertise of having the only haptic system to be licensed by the FIA, there’s no telling how far we can go. This new partnership combines the know-how of two industry leaders in sim racing and flight simulation, and we’re confident it will make for a truly unique experience.”

Matt Sten, CEO of Trak Racer, added that D-BOX’s unique combination of movements, vibrations and textures allows drivers to be perfectly tuned in to their vehicles.

“In sim racing, every second is crucial, and D-BOX’s haptic feedback can help drivers make back valuable seconds to conquer the track. We’re dedicated to bringing our customers the best value and experience possible, and our partnership with D-BOX just further proves that dedication.”

Trak Racer is a high-end manufacturer and reseller of gaming platforms that provides the official gaming simulator of the Alpine F1 Team.

D-BOX creates immersive entertainment experiences through motion, vibration, and texture.

D-BOX Technologies (DBO) is unchanged trading at $0.09 per share.
