There is provided a system for providing interactivity to a guest of an experiential venue, based on sensor measurement of the guest. The system comprises a sensor configured to sense a guest variable of the guest, where the sensor may be a biometric sensor, a facial recognition sensor, a voice stress analysis sensor, a gesture recognition sensor, a motion tracking sensor, or an eye tracking sensor, and may sense heart rate or another guest variable. The system also comprises a control system, which may be implemented as a computer, in communication with the sensor. The control system is configured to determine a guest state from the guest variable, and to modify a venue variable, for example by selecting a path a theme park ride follows. The control system modifies the venue variable according to the guest state to provide increased satisfaction to the guest of the experiential venue. |

The invention is concerned with a ferris wheel or observation tower or such amusement. It has a base with buoyancy to be able to independently float in the water. It can be located aside a quay of a river or channel, while the amusement is supported above the water surface by supporting elements provided by slender elements such as a pile. These piles have a bearing capacity increasing means at or near their under water bottom engaging part. These piles are also of the retractable type and have a fixed length and extend vertically while in the retracted position they extend above the base of the amusement. |

The invention relates to the entertainment industry. The special feature of the observation wheel is the arrangement of passenger modules 1 in groups with a distance between said groups circumferentially which exceeds the distance circumferentially between the passenger modules in the groups, wherein an outer annular element is reinforced in the areas in which the groups are arranged. |

A stationary track wheel ride is disclosed where a chain of rider carriages (gondolas) are driven around the stationary track. The rider carriages are rotationally mounted on axles on a support frame that allow the rider carriages to rotate around the axles so that the floor of the rider carriage remains approximately level with the ground while the rider carriage travels around the stationary track. A drive mechanism for the ride that simultaneously mounts the rider carriages to the track and provides the drive force is also include: a drive cable mechanism, motors attached to the track to drive the rider carriage train using drive wheels contacting some portion of the rider carriage. Motors attached to the rider carriage with drive wheels contacting the track. An emergency access assembly for fixed track rides and for Ferris wheel type rides is also disclosed. |
