Disney unveils new ride at Epcot
For the first time ever, Epcot's Innovation pavilion unveils the Kuka RoboSim 4-D Simulator at Epcot Theme Park.
Aboard the Kuka, guests can design their own experience using science and math equations. This new ride-of-rides will be a protege' of a bigger version Harry Potter Wizarding World attraction at Universal Studios. Essentially, Epcot is sponsoring the technology while the robotic arm is more integrated into Universals ride at Hogwarts Castle.
With a massive arm that lifts riders into the air, Kuku was developed by a German Robotics company that designs robotics for car manufactures. On this ride, guests are submerged under the hood creating complete simulation experience.
Programmed with sophisticated algorithms, the Kuka robotic arm can move on multiple axes simultaneously producing the Sum of All Thrill Rides. It has been rumored that Universal is using Kuka technology to power the $200 million Wizarding World simulator according to construction documents.
The difference between Epcot's Sum of All Rides and Universals Island of Adventure ride is that the Forbidden Journey at Hogwarts Castle includes a coaster motion along a track combined with multiple axes motion.
Raytheon based in Massachusetts, devises interactive exhibits with the purpose of promoting math and science among children.
