Kuka Robotics Corporation announced the usage of the RoboSim 4-D Simulator ride system as part of a new exhibit at Innoventions in Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. The addition of the RoboSim 4-D Simulator is an expansion of Kuka’s current presence at Innoventions at Epcot. Kuka currently sponsors Rockin’ Robots -- a 2,000-plus-square-foot interactive exhibit allowing guests to conduct a robotic band located in the Innoventions West building. The Kuka RoboSim 4-D Simulator creates a four-dimensional experience through 3-D robotic motion and “wind” by controlling air movements to stimulate the senses providing a more realistic simulation experience involving high speeds, quick direction changes and different climates for a unique sensation. The appeal of the two-seat simulator is that it does not fully enclose the rider, but allows the rider’s legs and feet to be suspended. The spherical carbon-fiber hood, which is integrated as part of the unique Kuka RoboCoaster ride system, immerses the rider into a true sensory experience by using high definition video combined with stereo sound and controlled air motion. The RoboSim 4-D Simulator is TÜV certified and includes safety devices such as smoke alarms and temperature monitoring. Video cameras and microphones allow RoboSim operators to monitor passengers at all times.
