Motion simulation involves training and simulation to enable a person to specialize in a specific task. Simulation-based training is cost-effective and helps to increase productivity and achieve accuracy by eliminating mistakes on the field. The main objective of motion simulation is to provide the trainee operator real life experience in a virtual environment and to train them for specific situations. The motion simulation market is segmented on the basis of types, applications, degree of freedom, and region. The market segmented on the basis of type includes hydraulics and actuators. Actuator-based motion simulation is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than the hydraulic-based market. The applications of motion simulation include automotive, defense, entertainment, healthcare, and mining. The defense application held the major share of the market, while the entertainment application is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

This report also includes the market analysis of human motion simulation. Human motion simulation, also known as digital human modeling (DHM), is high-end software used for scaling the human body. It may be defined as the digital representation of humans in a virtual environment to help analyze human performance, comfort, and above all, safety. Human motion simulation software includes RAMSIS (Human Solutions GmbH), DELMIA (Dassault Systems), SANTOS (SantosHuman Inc.), and JACK (Siemens Product Lifecycle Management Software Inc.).
