ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for projecting moving images of a travel path environment onto a remote surface simulating the operation of an automobile, airplane or other conveyance comprises a projector housing having a control end and an opposite end with an opening therein for passing a light beam generally longitudinally of the housing toward the remote surface. A beam forming light source is mounted for manually controlled lateral movement adjacent the control end of the housing and forms a light beam projecting outwardly through and shaped by said opening onto the remote surface. An endless belt having a run moving longitudinally of the light beam toward the light source is provided in the housing with one or more image forming devices mounted on the belt to form moving images with the light beam. Control means in the form of a steering wheel is provided for manually controlling the lateral position of the light source in the housing and thereby simulate lateral movement of a motor vehicle or other conveyance during its operation. The endless belt is provided with a plurality of spaced apart openings thereon and the image forming devices in the form of transparencies or models of motor vehicles or other conveyances can be removably mounted in selected ones of the openings as desired to provide a variety in the environment projected by the beam to test the driving skill of a driver during operation of the driving toy projector.
