One thing that isn’t right. You don’t load into the vehicle while in the detention cell. You’re broken out of it then load into it in the next room.
Yes! They showed this to me! When I asked if this fan technology would be used in the pre show for the Vi/Rey hologram effect, I was shot down and was told that the pre show effect is achieved using peppers ghost
I also asked if real sparks would be used in the AT AT room (like shown in the promo)... They said it was unlikely but also said that these fans could easily display spark effects as well...
For the umpteenth time, those spinners, and the patent are VERY cool. But the spinning items would in no way shape or form be in the same room as humans. They would have to be behind glass, for safety. So, they could be used, but not like most people are salivating over.

The spinner system is designed for pro-AV/digital signage in either a single unit or wall array setup. They can be used without a shield as long as people wont touch them while running. Simple solution is to install them a reasonable distance from the ride vehicle and just have sensors to detect if anyone tries to stick a selfie stick through for an e-stop. The demos I have seen only have shields if they are directly in contact with a public area, if they are behind a desk or in a booth you can walk right up to them unprotected.
Other systems they could use are the transparent displays type stuff demoed all the time at CES. It requires either a backlit area or a darkened environment for the best effect, and Disney already uses these in some retail applications. 3D holographic displays (internal 3D) have been around for a few years and are at a point where you could order them.
As long as you are using these systems in dark/non-sunlight applications, they look amazing. They are already in use on the commercial side, some even in Disney projects.

Yes, those photos were posted here.
Actually that is how the laser blast effect is created. Not behind glass.
Sparks are advanced fiber optics.

Wow, amazing work, Jack.
Have our insiders corroborated that RotR really will have PotC-level? capacity. That would be some seriously good news.

not even close to pirates level capacity.

Going in January, do we think that the extra extra magic hours will be in effect/extended? Couldn’t imagine why they wouldn’t given how big of an attraction Rise is meant to be.
Until one goes flying through the air and brains a 6 year old. It's not someone sticking something in it, it is WHEN, not if, they break.
Anything like that, running at high speed, 16 hours a day, will break. No current use of them is taxing the design like that. If their Hazop does NOT cover that scenario, it was apparently done by the same morons who didn't think the Skyliner could be stopped for 3 hours.

For the umpteenth time, those spinning items are happening in that very way, shape, and form, in the same room as humans (at least at the moment) despite your speculation. If you're concerned for your safety, bring a helmet!

Where are they running fo 16 hours every day.?
PLEASE shed some light on me.

That's an instore display in Europe. They are sold to pro-AV users for digital signage, they are designed for retail environments. Uptime might be an issue over months, but i can say that the LED walls that Disney has required panel replacements once or twice a month. These don't fail by spinning off, the fins are very light. The failure mode is usually damaged power connections.

The guy literally just posted a video of Buzz which has a similar spinner in front of your face without a glass inbetween.
I don’t believe the Buzz effect is the same. It looks more like a Christmas tree of sorts, spinning. Not blades. Plus, it’s quite smal.
Those store displays are likely not permanent. I’d assume these have pretty short lifespans.
And they are in Europe, where if it falls on you, ummm, oh, sorry about that.

Which is still a better culture than suing somebody for stepping on his toe.
How do you even imagine this object flying off, does that mean we should be afraid for a snapping Skyliner cable aswell?
