A simulation apparatus (82, 86, 88, 90, 92, 94, 96, 98, 100) which simulates movement signatures of a manually operated control mechanism of an automotive vehicle, the control mechanism having a user-operated control mechanism having a movable member movable from a first position to a second position, and the apparatus comprising means for providing a predetermined movement signature, control means (102) for using the movement signature and generating therefrom control signals, and simulation means adapted to be in contact with the movable member of the control mechanism which receives the control signals and produces forces on the movable member dependent on the position of the movable member. The mechanism may be a door latch mechanism of a vehicle. |
