In a recent trip to Walt Disney Worldยฎ Resort, our owner, Chet, was able to give the newest Disney Innovention, Sum of All Thrillsโ„ข, a test run. ย An exhibit located at Innoventions East Building in Epcotยฎย gives guests a chance to design their perfect thrill ride.

Sum of All Thrillsโ„ขย will test your imagination. ย An interactive touch screen lets guests determine height and speed while adding features such as dips and corkscrew turns to the virtual roller coaster, bobsled track or plane ride. ย Designs are created using a digital ruler and pre-selected track options to construct the rides. If a guest tries to build something physically impossible ย then they’re asked to retool their ideas.

Once the ride is completed on screen it is time to climb aboard the 4-D robotic simulator that uses sight, sound and movement to give you a realistic experience. ย The robotic carriage uses virtual-reality technology to help guests experience the ride they just created. ย With their legs and arms outside the ride, guests watch a video version of their ride while the robotic arm moves from side to side, up and down, and will even flip guests upside down to simulate the feeling of a real roller coaster. Fans blow air at the riders at various speeds to give guests the sensation that they are moving forward.

Sum of All Thrillsโ„ขย is perfect for any thrill junkie of any age*! ย And don’t worry, if you get a little carried away with your design, you can always hit the “Oh, no!” button during the ride to stop the simulation.
