Hi all
I'm currently working on a free-to-use driving simulator computer program which I'm hoping will be of some interest to novice caravan owners.
This program contains an animated tutorial which explains the principles involved in reversing a caravan (or any trailer) and a 3D driver simulator that allows you to practise these principles.
The simulator provides a birds-eye view, along with multiple rear mirror views of the reversing operation. It has an 'autopilot mode' that demonstrates how to reverse into areas such as gateways and parking spaces and a 'guidance mode' to help you try it for yourself.
I've had favourable reviews from the National Trailer and Towing Association (NTTA), the Swift Caravan Group and the Caravan and Camping Club and the program has been endorsed by IAM Roadsmart.
Now I'd like to ask for the help of all you experienced caravanners out there! I'm keen to get feedback from anyone who's interested but particularly those who already know how to reverse a caravan. It would be great to know what's good, what's bad and what might be improved.
If you're interested in taking a look you can find further details on my web site at http://www.reversemytrailer.co.uk/.
There are also two short demonstration videos that can be viewed on YouTube and will hopefully give you a flavour of what the program can do without having to download and install it.
The first shows the main features of the simulator, using the built-in QuickStart feature: https://youtu.be/y6l6sviT_I8
The second shows the reverse-manoeuvre tutorial feature: https://youtu.be/eIaEZgcwjl4
I hope you enjoy using it - and don't forget, it's FREE!.
