In the previous article we discussed how virtual reality is not limited only to gaming but to many other activities, such as educational experiences or sentimental (Yes you read right, I speak of “real” love… If you’re curious read here). But still what really does bring the average user to VR is fun. And well, what is the funniest thing that comes to mind? For us it is the theme park. Since we are children we used to visit theme parks first with our parents, then with friends, then with the girl and finally with our family, closing this happy circle that repeats through generations. If you’re wondering what this has to do with virtual reality, I’ll explain shortly. Like the rest of the world also this sector has opened the doors to the development of technology, and in particular to the vr.
The Void is probably one of the first theme parks in virtual reality. Born in Utah has gradually gained in importance, gaining important spaces in parks like Disneyland California and Florida.
In his latest experience was catapulted into the world of Star Wars, particularly in a mission that will see you involved in retrieving the Imperial intelligence that will lead to victory in the rebellion.
But China is no exception, indeed. In Guizhou province is building one of the largest parks in vr in the world which will cover an area of 1.3 square kilometers and will be seen as “pets” a Transformer 53 meters tall. A spokesman for the Park revealed that a full headset will be provided to all visitors at the entrance, so that we can interact with the environment.
Also in Italy the virtual reality is taking hold.
WeArena was born in Gorizia and it’s a digital entertainment park that has gaming stations and virtual experiences and immersive of the latest generation. Not only that, parks like Gardaland and Rainbow Magicland revolutionized the vision of the rollercoaster, introducing virtual reality on their coasters, respectively to the Shaman and the Olandese Volante.
Surely it is just a starting point, will be born new structures and will be renovated old experiences, because as the title, theme parks and VR are the perfect combination.
