Cybrolator

[twilight mitsuk]

how is the show done in the elevators at the enterance to disneyquest? projections, controls, etc.

 

[rackman]

They Cybrolators is done with a pepper's ghost illusion for the background and foreground projectors for the Genie. The effects are synchronized using a A-McB V16 show controller.

Are they custom built or modified freight/service elevators

 

[rackman]

They are customized elevators. The mechanism is stock, but the cab is custom. The motion is sync'd with the movie and there are transducers in the floor for the vibration.

I don't know exactly what the Orlando ones are but the Chicago cybrolator mechanisms were made by Otis.

 

[rackman]

I confirmed the maker of the Orlando cybrolator cab mechanism. It's Schindler.

[twilight mitsuk]

no, I think it means controlled elevator

 

[raqman]

The Cybrolater is a Hydraulic Elevator! I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the Sling/Platform/Cab were done by Schumacher Elevator, everything else was done by another elevator company. Schumacher I think is known for their outstanding custom elevators. Onezy's Twozy's type of elevators.
