Dynamic cinema

The term dynamic cinema refers to a cinematographic projection (and by extension space where this projection takes place) accompanied by effects of real movements on the spectators: the latter are placed either on seats set in motion or on board a set platform. in motion, placed in a moving capsule.

These movements are mostly provided by a device of vertical cylinders.

In general, the movements are pre-recorded during shooting and are activated synchronously during the projection to give a stronger effect of immersion in the image. For example, if the projected sequence is seen from a moving vehicle, the movements imposed on the spectators will have directions similar to those of the accelerations that they could have undergone in reality.

The sensations are more and more often amplified by a film in relief, stereoscopic glasses being lent for the sequence.

Several special effects can also be added, such as wind tunnels, rain effects and watering ...

In common language, dynamic cinema is also called simulator. The technology used to ensure the movements of the seats or platform is often similar to that of flight simulators, such as hexapod platforms.

The essential difference with real simulators comes from the fact that there is no interaction between the spectators and the presented scene. Spectators (sometimes more than 50 seats in a dynamic room) remain passive and can not modify the simulated course.

The American company Disney implemented this technology for the Star Tours and Body Wars attractions in 1986 or in 2002 for Mission: Space, a space flight simulator with the illusion of weightlessness, designed with the help of NASA. Disney also uses simpler principles like hanging chairs above a screen with air movement increasing the realism of the simulation ( Soarin 'Over California ).

Universal Studios, a Disney-based company, has introduced similar mobile platform-based technology for the Simpsons Ride (formerly Back to the Future: The Ride, which simulated the moving of a flying car through time and space).
