  "textContent": "A brake cylinder configured to provide braking signaling to an automotive simulator, the brake cylinder includes a damper housing, a resilient damper arranged within the damper housing and a piston configured to move a block in the axial direction at least partially into the damper housing towards said resilient damper. The block comprises a mechanical stop configured to limit the axial movement of the piston in the axial direction. The brake cylinder further has a sensor configured to measure a response to movement of said piston and send a signal to a processor indicative of that movement. The brake cylinder is configured to be connected to a brake pedal. The mechanical stop divides the braking process into two phases a first phase where the pedal can be depressed and a second phase where the pedal cannot be pressed further due to the mechanical stop. In one variant the brake cylinder is a purely mechanical system with only the damper housing or in combination with a single cylinder chamber. Alternatively, the described cylinder chamber is a slave chamber for use in a hydraulic brake cylinder also including a master chamber in fluid connection with the slave chamber via a channel.",
