The interactive theater system is executed on an interactive gaming computer (IG PC) configured to execute an interactive multi-player video game. The IG PC outputs a video stream to a display system, such as a projector and screen, which allows the players to view the multi-player video game. Each player sits in a multi-sensory seat for providing multi-sensory feedback to each player during execution of the interactive multi-player video game. The player provides input using an input device having an infrared camera and motion sensors. The infrared camera is used to image an infrared light arrangement positioned above-the multi-sensory seats. Infrared camera data and motion sensor data is used by the IG PC to accurately determine the real time position of each input device. Players in a first interactive theater system can compete with players in a second interactive theater system in real time.

The fog section is located behind the bubble section and comprises a fog outlet in front of a fan, where the fog outlet is connected to a fog heater core and a fog pump is in turn connected to a fog fluid reservoir. The control interface controls the selection of effects.

A three-dimensional display system includes a first display and a second display spaced apart from the first display having one or more light sources configured to emit light and to illuminate the first display, where the first display is at least partially transparent such that the second display is visible through the first display. The three-dimensional display system includes a special effect system disposed at least in part between the first display and the second display and is configured to be activated to cause a special effect to be visible through the first display. The three-dimensional display system includes a controller communicatively coupled to the first display, the second display, and the special effect system.

A smoke generator includes a casing having a first chamber receiving dry ice, a second chamber receiving water, and a third chamber. The casing includes an outer side having a smoke outlet intercommunicating with the second chamber. The first chamber includes a smoke discharge port intercommunicating with the second chamber. A water pump device in the third compartment includes a water inlet located in the second chamber and a water spraying end located in the first chamber. The water pump device delivers water in the second chamber to the first chamber. The dry ice contacts with the water and gasifies into smoke that enters the second chamber via the smoke discharge port and is then ejected out via the smoke outlet. Water in the first chamber is flowable back to the second chamber. A heater is disposed in the second chamber and can increase the temperature of the water.

The invention relates to a device for producing special effect fog, in particular in the field of stage technology, comprising fog generator (1) which is equipped with a heating element, wherein a fog fluid is evaporated by means of the heating element, and at least one ultrasonic vaporizer (5) which is arranged in a housing (2) on the bottom (3) of a main mixing chamber (4), wherein the fog which is generated by the fog generator (1) can be conducted into the main mixing chamber (4), and wherein, furthermore, a baffle wall (7) is provided in the main mixing chamber (4) close to an outlet opening (6). In addition, a pre-mixing chamber (8) is provided, into which an air stream which is generated by a fan (9) and the fog which is generated by the fog generator (1) can be introduced via respective access openings (14, 15). The pre-mixing chamber (8) is connected by means of a transfer opening (10) to the main mixing chamber (4), wherein the transfer opening (10) is arranged in the main mixing chamber (4) so as to lie opposite the baffle wall (7).

A gaming cabin includes a display device, an adjustable chair, a degree-of-freedom adjusting device, a situation simulator, and a system end. The degree-of-freedom adjusting device is configured to provide three degrees of freedom for the display device along the vertical axis, along the horizontal axis and yaw, as well as provide automatic view-switching and surround sound control. The system end is configured to adjust the resolution of the display device using foveated rendering technique, thereby increasing system efficiency. The situation simulator is configured to provide visual, olfactory, tactile or impact effect during VR applications.

A method may include acquiring, via a capture system, a dataset associated with a user at a first location, detecting, via a control system, the user at a second location, displaying, via an environmental system, one or more images generated from the dataset at the second location in response to detecting the user at or past the second location, and triggering, via a special effect system, a special effect during the displaying at the second location in response to detecting the user at or past the second location. The dataset may include image data of the user.

An aqueous solution (20) containing carbohydrate for generating smoke includes 91.9-98.95 wt % of pure water, 1-8 wt % of carbohydrate, and 0.05-0.1 wt % of a water soluble aromatic substance of orange flavor. A method for generating smoke includes preparing an aqueous solution (20) containing carbohydrate comprising 91.9-98.95 wt % of pure water, 1-8 wt % of carbohydrate, and 0.05-0.1 wt % of a water soluble aromatic substance of orange flavor; and vibrating the aqueous solution (20) at a high frequency, causing gradual atomization from a surface of the aqueous solution (20) to form droplets containing the carbohydrate and having a diameter in a range of 6-20 μm.

A haze-filled bubble device and method for producing haze-filled bubbles are provided that encapsulates a haze inside a rapidly emitted, continuous flow of bubbles, without permitting significant amounts of the haze to escape the device outside of the bubbles. Bubble solution is pumped into a bubble wand and a wiper cycles across its face to form a meniscus of bubble solution over the bubble wand's outer face. Additionally, a haze generating assembly can selectively pump fog fluid to a heater and a resultantly generated haze is provided to an enclosed chamber. A fan in the enclosed chamber forces the haze from the chamber into a conduit that channels the haze into the bubble wand and to the miniscus, where the air flow created by the fan is used to form haze-filled bubbles.
