The East London Expo shows how augmented and virtual reality will become important as attractions change with the times, but luckily not all at the same time. And while parts of London had a solemn atmosphere, with tens of thousands of people lining up to pay their respects to the Queen, a further 10,000 people lined up for convention centers in east London to visit theme parks. gathered to witness the future of The halls of the Convention Center were occupied by a monster truck with his rider on a hydraulic swing and a 10-foot-tall alien he had 3D printed in a matter of hours. Anyone walking through the cavernous halls can't help but notice the vast array of virtual reality headsets. Through VR, monster truck drivers experienced spinning as if they were being driven through a real arena. Meanwhile, roller coaster maker Mack Rides was able to demonstrate its own ride without sending attendees to the German company's European park.

This technology also helps provide interactivity. This is what Mark Beumers, managing his director of Dutch Dirk and his ride provider Lagotronics Projects believes will be increasingly important to the experience. “Visitors are expecting more and more because they grew up with technology and want to experience it in different and better ways than at home. And they already have a lot of technology in their homes. and experiencing it in a positive way, so theme parks should be an extra step. Simply putting on and taking off the headset can cause unacceptable delays in loading the rides, and technology is making it possible for visiting friends and family to enjoy one of the best characteristics of visiting a theme park: sharing the experience with the friends and family you visit with while the technology was only installed in his park in early 2018, his Covid impact in recent years has given operators the opportunity to rethink and change their approach. "In 2019, people thought, 'This is new, this is going to be trendy,'" says Emily Popovich of his agency Outdoor He Factory of theme park design. "But Covid hit and everyone forgot it "And after Covid, everyone is quieting down and developed new great things.

The industry is full of geniuses," said Maximilian Roeser, marketing manager at Mack Rides. , says it is a new impetus that will allow riders to experience all the benefits of augmented reality, without being trapped in a bubble that cuts them off from the real world. , riders don headsets long before boarding the coaster itself, and the entire experience of queuing, boarding, and disembarking is virtually added. But Roeser says the biggest change is that such technology "Theme parks evolve in ways that are increasingly interactive. "Also, it's becoming more and more customizable to our guests. Every park knows who's coming, their name, their age, maybe what they like and don't like, so we can change the park for each guest." Also, each guest's experience is different and can be directly related to that guest. , you can choose your own experience: the person sitting on your left might be watching a different movie than the person on your right." But the old-fashioned experience has gone somewhere. No. For many, like conference organizer Julie Ricewitherell of IAAPA, nothing beats the thrill of riding a new roller coaster for the first time. When you build something new somewhere, it's something completely different. It's not better, but it's either faster or has more curves and hits higher G-forces. It's always something new and never experienced before.”
