BDH Active Shifter – Active Force Feedback Gear Shifter

BDH Active Shifter™ – Active Force Feedback Gear Shifter for Sim Racing

The BDH Active Shifter™ represents a major breakthrough in sim racing hardware. This active force feedback gear shifter delivers realistic mechanical sensations through a servo-driven system that reacts in real time to vehicle telemetry, providing deep immersion and a direct physical connection to your simulator.

High-Fidelity Active Force Feedback

Unlike passive shifters or preset vibration effects, the Active Shifter directly interprets vehicle physics. You can feel drivetrain load, engine vibrations, resistance during stressed gear changes and realistic gear locking under torque. This results in an authentic shifting experience that closely mirrors real mechanical transmissions.

Professional-Grade Engineering and Build Quality

• CNC-machined aerospace-grade aluminum chassis with durable anodized finish.
• High-performance servo motor delivering fast, precise and consistent force feedback.
• Integrated rotary encoder for on-the-fly parameter adjustments.
• Configurable gear gate layouts from 4-speed to 6-speed including reverse.
• Ambidextrous mounting for left- or right-hand installation.

Native SimHub Integration

Designed to work natively with SimHub, the Active Shifter processes real-time telemetry data and translates it into physical feedback on the lever. This direct hardware-to-telemetry connection ensures exceptional accuracy and realism without the need for additional plugins.

Real-Time Adjustment and Control

• Instant gear pattern changes directly from the shifter.
• Adjustable haptic feedback intensity per vehicle or discipline.
• Precise clutch engagement calibration.
• All settings accessible during driving sessions.
