Have you ever been to an amusement park and wished you could control your ride experience? Well, Universal City Studios has just made that wish come true with their advanced control system.
The system, which is detailed in patent US20230226458A1, is designed to let riders customize their experience by controlling the movement of the ride vehicle with the force they apply to an input device. Universal City Studios has created a unique system which uses sensors to measure the force and/or deformation caused by the force and use it to determine how the vehicle should move.
This advanced control system could revolutionize the amusement park industry and revolutionize the way people experience rides. It could add a whole new level of excitement to attractions, allowing riders to have more control over their ride experience.
Imagine the possibilities! Instead of just going along for the ride, you can now choose how fast or slow you want to go, or even where you want to go. It could be a great way to explore the amusement park and get a more personalized experience.
The technology behind the system is quite complex, but it basically works by measuring the force you apply to the input device. The sensors then use that information to determine the speed and direction of the vehicle.
This system could be used in a variety of different ways. For example, a roller coaster could use the technology to let riders adjust the speed and direction of the coaster as they go along. Or an interactive motion simulator could be programmed to respond to the force applied by riders to give them a more immersive experience.
The possibilities are endless. Universal City Studios has the potential to create some truly unique experiences for amusement park guests.
Of course, as this is a patent, there is no guarantee that this technology will ever be used in the real world. However, the fact that Universal City Studios has invested in this technology shows that they are open to exploring new ways to make rides more fun and interactive.
Universal City Studios’ patent is an exciting development in the amusement park industry and could potentially lead to a whole new level of ride experiences. Whether or not it ever comes to fruition, it’s a great example of how technology can be used to bring new fun and excitement to amusement parks.
