This master thesis deals with the question: "What is important when developing and validating a driving simulator?"

First we deal with the question: "What are the challenges and problems of developing a low-cost driving simulator?" This concerns finding which possibilities you have when developing a driving simulator, and testing the simulator in order to find the main problems with it.

We also deal with the question: "How do the different physical components of a driving simulator affect the validity?" This concerns developing test scenarios in order to test the relative validity of physical components based on different dependent variables.
