New tech - soon in an attraction?

This popped up in my Facebook feed.
Wondering/curious when this could be seen in an attraction in the parks - it could take an attraction that is “Soarin’-like” to a new level.

Apparently it’s only viewable on Facebook - I tried a Google search.

If you are on Facebook, lookup Tech Insider and it will come up on their page. If I find it elsewhere I’ll post it here.

disney needs to replace mission space with a ride using this technology now!

I presume you're talking of this?



Nice tech, though apart from the part underneath you, it's essentially already in use in Orlando at SeaWorld (Turtle Trek) and kinda Universal (Skull Island and soon to be Fast and Furious). Uni's uses 3D glasses and a motion base, SW's is a dome you stand in the middle of.

Yes! Thank you - I was having trouble finding it online.

Calling this virtual reality is misleading and it’s really not a new concept. Vendors have been trying to make these surround screens a thing for awhile now and the concept really hasn’t gone anywhere.

This would be great in a NEW One Man's Dream attraction...enter the theatre and you are in Disneyland PRE CONSTRUCTION and then time lapse video takes you through the park walking beside a familiar face, you look to your right, and there is Walt Disney looking at you and explaining what he is building!

Maybe something like this could be implemented for the Guardians Coaster with out being able to see the track. Some set pieces would be nice too in it.
