However, they are sometimes expensive systems that need to be carefully studied before they are designed and built, since some simulators can actually be much more expensive than the simulated vehicle. This is an important issue, although it is sometimes overlooked in scientific research. This paper proposes four different setups (with a variety of visual, sound, motion generation, and user-input interfaces) for non-aerial vehicle simulation, using a speedboat simulator as a case study. These setups are analysed in terms of their cost and their effectiveness is discussed. Rough figures are provided to give a comparative insight into the economic order of magnitude necessary to design and build a vehicle simulator.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/mti1020010","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,23]],"date-time":"2017-05-23T01:47:33Z","timestamp":1495504053000},"page":"10","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Four Different Multimodal Setups for Non-Aerial Vehicle Simulations\u2014A Case Study with a Speedboat Simulator"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"1","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0396-4628","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sergio","family":"Casas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Robotics and Information and Communication Technologies (IRTIC), Universitat de Val\u00e8ncia, Valencia 46980, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marcos","family":"Fern\u00e1ndez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Robotics and Information and Communication Technologies (IRTIC), Universitat de Val\u00e8ncia, Valencia 46980, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2754-9592","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jos\u00e9","family":"Riera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Robotics and Information and Communication Technologies (IRTIC), Universitat de Val\u00e8ncia, Valencia 46980, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Allerton, D.
