Sensit Haptics FAQ

Here we answer the most common questions about our Metahaptics technology and the MTC-P.

Metahaptics and the MTC-P

What are Metahaptics?

Metahaptics is a technology that enables virtual and tactile feedback experiences in real-time using haptic devices.

How does Metahaptics differ from other haptic technologies?

Metahaptics employs a complex algorithm-based technology that enables a wide range of tactile feedback experiences to be generated in real-time, while other haptic technologies use simpler vibration patterns.

What are the benefits that Metahaptics has on Simracing?

Metahaptics helps you feel more immersed in the experience and brings the Simulation to the next level. If your main goal is to drive the fastest time possible, then Metahaptics can help you find the exact grip limit of your tire.

Which effects are simulated?

Gear Shift, Engine, ABS, Wheel Slip, Road Feel

What Sims/Racing Games are currently compatible?

Assetto Corsa Competizione, Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa Evo, and F1 24 are currently supported, with more to come in future updates.

Do Metahaptics work with SimHub?

The product fully supports connectivity against SimHub software with full feature sets. It is an alternative use mode to the native Sensit SimRacing Cockpit® software, which is optimized for full range of high-resolution effects, lowest latency and special effects for each game.

Is the MTC-P Extreme the same as the Nitro Concepts Immersion Metahaptics?

Yes, both are technically identical. The Nitro Concepts version is a branded edition of the MTC-P Extreme. Both were developed by Sensit and offer the same haptic performance and features.

How can I update the app?

What is the difference between immersive mode and competitive mode?

Immersive Mode aims to provide a realistic driving feel with all effects turned on so you can really feel what your car is doing on the track. Competitive Mode on the other hand aims to give you minimal effects (Wheel Slip and ABS) so you can focus on improving your lap time at the limit of grip.

MTC-P trouble shooting

My kit stopped working while racing.

Try unplugging and plugging the power cable and restart the software. It should say “seat connected” in the top right corner.

My haptic feedback is very weak.

Check which profile you are using, then try adjusting the intensity sliders. Also, make sure that all the desired effects are turned on.

The effects are not working in the Sim.

Check to see if you are using a profile with disabled effects, and switch them on for the current simulation.
