It will create in one company a single co-ordinated approach to simulation that will ensure the development of the most effective and exciting simulators, with no longer any division between hardware and software.
For BRD, the formal agreement will enable the company to offer the motorsport world, and not least F1 teams, a level of realism in graphics and physics that has established netKar PRO has among the most creative and innovative software developers.
Driven by Lead Programmer Stefano Casillo, who founded netKar PRO as a hobby in 2001, he and his team launched in Italy in April their latest software which has such advanced features as a complex tyre model whose traction and handling can be affected by dirt, wear and flat spot caused by driver brake-locking.
It also features a fully interactive cockpit with an instrument panel that can be actually operated through a mouse, or the controls of the simulator, and a fully modeled telemetry data acquisition system to electronically record the performance of engine and actuation of controls by the driver, which can then be used as a foundation for determining car setup.
Said managing director Nik Ball: "We are tremendously excited by our plans of developing with Stefano and his associates the next generation of hardware and software simulation that will put forward an evermore compelling argument for the use of simulators in motorsports across the board.
"With netKar PRO working as BRD's exclusive software development team, we will be able to offer motorsport the most technically advanced simulation hardware and software package available on the market."
For Stefano and his Italian-based team, the collaboration is seen as "a tremendous opportunity for netKar PRO to enter the professional market through the main door, allowing us to work closer with racing teams and to target our software to meet their requirements.
"It will also give us a unique opportunity to create the first unified package of hardware and software in simracing. Working closely with BRD will allow both of us to experiment and develop new solutions to bring simracing even closer to real racing."
