Virtual Reality Demonstrates Performance of Mack Trucks

Anyone interested in what it’s like to sit in the cab and ride in a Mack truck while on the job can now experience it through virtual reality offered by Mack Trucks.

Mack used virtual reality technology to better demonstrate features and benefits of the Mack Pinnacle, Mack Granite and Titan by Mack models equipped with the Mack mDRIVE HD 13-speed automated manual transmission. Using a VR headset and a smartphone, viewers can look around 360 degrees to see the cab interior in its entirety, as well as see what it feels like to be in the cab of a Mack model while it’s operating in quarries and on the highway.

Mack is the first Class 8 OEM to offer a virtual reality test drive of a commercial vehicle to a wide audience. Virtual reality is a computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly physical way by placing the viewer’s perspective within the image or video itself.

Using virtual reality headgear, Google Cardboard or a smartphone, viewers can look around 360 degrees to see the cab interior in its entirety, as well as see what it feels like to be in the cab of a Mack model while it’s operating in quarries and on the highway.

The Mack virtual reality experience showcases the power of the mDRIVE HD 13-speed as it effortlessly frees the Mack Granite model from mud on a job site, easily drives up and down a steep grade without having to continuously apply brakes, reducing brake wear-and-tear, and also smoothly manages a fully loaded Mack Pinnacle model up and down a 15 percent and a 20 percent grade.
