NewsParcs, connecting the theme park industry!

In Denmark, Zamperla has also supplied two attractions on behalf of the amusement park Tivoli in Copenhagen, including one of the newest concept developed by the manufacturer: 'Air Race' (model 6.4). Accommodating 24 riders in six four-seater gondolas, the ride – named 'Aquila' by the park – combines a main rotation motion (up to 6rpm) with a motor-driven rotation of the arms, allowing the gondolas to swing from one side to another up to doing a complete rotation. “Our artistic department worked closely with the designers of Tivoli to develop state-of-the-art attractions. Air Race is the centerpiece of the new area with its majestic central structure and the eagle themed vehicles,” said Marco Mazzuchi, Zamperla Marketing Manager.“
The 'Immersive Tunnel' is available as a static installation or with the tram simulators positioned upon a track system that transports the passengers into the show area. “Guests board the trams for an experience that takes them on a fun-filled journey that assaults the senses in many different ways – with physical platform drops, dynamic motion, blasts of air, water spray, vibrations, dramatic lighting effects, surround sound and 3D film projected to the front and both sides of the tram. All the various elements and effects combine to provide a hugely realistic experience,” explained Simworx.
The leading AV integrator now delivers an extensive range of services to the immersive theater market including theater planning, design, integration, specialist media and software, and maintenance. “State-of-the-art integrated systems have been developed and optimized for the unique needs of each immersive theater environment,” explained the company. “The GSX™ Giant Screen Cinema series, for giant screen flat, curved and dome theaters, offers the highest display performance and the broadest range of content compatibility in the market. The Fidelity™ range offers an optimum balance of performance, reliability, functionality and value for today's digital planetarium. In addition to leading edge theater technology, Electrosonic offers a comprehensive immersive media and show library to ensure that theaters have access to the best content.”
'Water Journeys' is a linear ground play area, created in imitation of nature’s water systems and includes: boating, flow management, rivers, and streams in a four module game installation. Children will have an opportunity to use their imaginations and ingenuity by manoeuvring levers and managing how the water behaves within the modules. One module will directly impact how the water moves lower in the chain. “Our latest innovation provides landscape architects and aquatic designers with new opportunities to create remarkable landmarks that are cross generational,” said the company. “Water Journeys is sold as a single game module or as set of modules. Designers & architects have the option to select one or more games to fit their specific space & design.”NewsParcs' Theme Park Industry News Roundup is a summary of the latest major news related to the theme park industry worldwide.
