D-BOX Becomes the Official Haptic Supplier of Adrenalin GmbH
17 September 2021 - 08:00AM
D-BOX Technologies Inc. (“D-BOX” or the “Corporation”) (TSX: DBO),
a world leader in haptic and immersive entertainment, and Adrenalin
GmbH (“Adrenalin”) are pleased to announce an agreement upon which
D-BOX becomes the exclusive haptic supplier for all their
Simulators, including the DRSeven® Sim Racing Simulators created
for Nürburgring eSports, their first 6 degrees of freedom (“DOF”)
unit dedicated to eSports. Nürburgring eSports is planning to open
several franchises over the coming year, offering the best global
network of Sim Racing eSports venues. Adrenalin GmbH and D-BOX will
be attending the ADAC Sim Racing Expo 2021 this week (booth 5/5),
from September 17 to September 19, at the Nürburgring in Germany.
The global gaming simulator market is estimated
to grow quite rapidly over the next few years. Adrenalin wants to
capitalize on that opportunity, offer a superior playing experience
and enhanced performance. Adrenalin has tested several haptic
solutions available in the market and determined that D-BOX was the
most precise and reliable solution. Based on that, they have
decided to install D-BOX actuators in all their products especially
in their DRSeven® simulators which will be deployed in all the
Nürburgring eSports franchises.
The quality of racing games has improved
dramatically over the recent years. In Sim Racing, we are now
approaching the realism of car racing both in terms of the
realistic representation of established racing circuits and the
sensations felt in a race car. The deployment of racing simulation
centers will therefore undoubtedly benefit the training of a new
generation of racing drivers by allowing them to familiarize
themselves with the different circuits, different types of race
cars, without time limit, and at a fraction of the cost of a real
racing practice session.
“We really believe in this concept of Sim Racing
Centers. As vaccines roll out around the world, restrictions lift
and entertainment complexes reopen gradually, it appears that
people are willing to pay for an experience they could not get
after a year stuck at home,” declared Yannick Gemme, Vice
President, Sales of D-BOX. “Sim Racing centers is
a fairly new concept, which we believe will attract people looking
for new immersive and realistic racing experiences.”
“Adrenalin is thrilled to partner with D-BOX.
This haptic system is essential when it comes time to recreate the
realism of a race, and D-BOX is the best in that field. We have
built our brand around quality, precision and reliability, and for
that reason it was extremely important for us to associate with a
partner that felt the same and could deliver that,” declared Thomas
Hölzlhammer, Chief Executive Officer at Adrenalin. “We are all very
excited to train the car racers of tomorrow, in providing them with
the best Sim Racing experience, not only with DRSeven® simulators
in Nürburgring eSports Centers, as well as with all our other Sim
Racing products.”
D-BOX is present all week at ADAC Sim Racing
Expo 2021 at booth 5/5. D-BOX is a major sponsor of the event and
is showcasing the D-BOX motion zone, recreating the racing
experience and feelings as if you were a SIM Racer.
ABOUT ADRENALINAdrenalin was

began searching for the ultimate simulator experience. After
testing several systems, the decision matured to developing one for
themselves. Today Adrenalin’s vision is to create high-quality
simulators as prototypes, including both larger format and smaller
product types. Currently the company remains focused within the B2B
segment of business, however in the future looks to expand into the
B2C market, offering a full range of consumer products.
