From point-and-shoot to on-ride tracking technology and augmented reality, track-bound or trackless, the fascinating world of dark rides seems to be innovating at lightning speed, captivating multigenerational audiences all over the world.

During this session, you will join three inventive visionaries at the forefront of this technology as they uncover the ingenuity and complexity that go behind today's cutting-edge dark rides. We will dive deeper into how their ideas are conceptualised and ultimately brought to life. We will also look into the advances they make as we discover several innovative dark rides that they developed recently: The Lego Factory Adventure Ride at Legoland New York Resort, where riders will find themselves virtually transformed into Lego Minifigures thanks to advanced computer vision and tracking technology, and the Sesame Street: Street Mission interactive dark ride at Portaventura, Spain, where brave families help Detective Grover during an action-packed, secret mission. And finally, we will take a glimpse into the promising future of this type of ride.

IAAPA Exchange presented by the IAAPA Young Professionals Sub-Committee:
There will be a 5-minute break when the Webinar concludes and then participants are invited back for an Exchange session where networking discussions will be held in small groups. The speakers will be available in small group discussions to continue the conversation and answer questions.

Participants will earn 1 CEUs for attending the Webinar toward IAAPA Certification renewal.
