Abstract
User eXperience (UX) is one of the most important aspects when developing a simulator. It ensures that the final product is not just functional, but users find a value in what they are getting. The paper presents a set of heuristic to assess usability in driving simulators. It also defines a set of design recommendations focused on UX.
