Virtual reality attracts many people and in all fields. After being implemented in many sectors, it is now taking over amusement parks. Indeed, the first VR rollercoaster opens in Canada! The park offers a ride on a rollercoaster equipped with a virtual reality headset. Launched at over 110 km/h, the fighter jet in which passengers take place has the mission to eliminate an alien invasion in the heart of New York.

In order to fully enjoy this new technology and this new concept, visitors are equipped with an augmented virtual reality mask, which allows them to live a whole new, unprecedented experience! The application integrated into the headset allows for perfect synchronization with the movements of the attraction.

After this first, we will find this summer a virtual reality park that will open in the United States. Composed of 7 large game rooms, walls covered with materials and motion simulators, visitors will be equipped with gloves, helmets and vests to interact perfectly with this virtual world.
Virtual reality is starting to become a norm in amusement parks; in France we will very soon see new augmented virtual reality animations, notably at Futuroscope.
