A seat moving machine comprises a passenger seat assembly disposed in between opposing seat supports which raise and lower the passenger seat assembly. One or more passenger seat beam rotators are operative to rotate the passenger seat assembly to change the pitch independently of the raising and lowering. In embodiments, rather that the seat rows being pivoted up with a rotating floor, a rotate function alters their mutual positions to one another while the lift function is taking place which brings the back seat rows up and over the front seat rows, allowing control over mutual row position during lift and in the show. Though no cables are involved, by combining the motions of lift and rotate and without any further equipment, an immersive theater system comprising the seat moving machine still employs seating that is suspended.

A method for assembling a modular auditorium and modular auditorium. The method includes providing a plurality of nominal inventory portions. Each nominal inventory portions includes a prefabricated base portion, and a prefabricated tier section for assembly to the base portion. The prefabricated base portion is positioned on a ground surface of a public performance space. The prefabricated tier section is fastened to the prefabricated base portion to form a self supporting modular auditorium structure that does not require lateral support from a building structure other than the ground surface.

A movie theater auditorium is disclosed with reclining or reclined seats, whereby patrons are viewing a screen that is elevated and tilted toward the viewing audience. Comparative to traditional movie theaters with vertical screens with fixed or reclining chairs, exemplary embodiments provide a more natural viewing angle and line of sight for the viewing audience. Some embodiments are disclosed which employ repurposed shipping containers as structural elements of a cinema.

A behavior management system includes one detection apparatus including at least one piezoelectric element diposed at a place where the piezoelectric element receives an effect of an action of a person, and circuitry. The circuitry detects a voltage output from the piezoelectric element when the piezoelectric element is applied with force caused by the action of the person, determines a level of the action of the person at the place based on a change of amplitude and polarity of the detected voltage, and outputs information associated to the determined level of the action of the person.

A cinema theater includes a seating area, a curved screen in front of the seating area and at least one projector. In one aspect, the seating area is preferably a stadium seating area and the at least one projector is positioned behind and above the stadium seating area. In another aspect, the curved screen has a center point and the at least one projector is mounted at an angle of incidence to the center point of the screen of between ±5° horizontal and ±5° vertical. In yet another aspect, the seating area that has an upper seating area and a lower seating area and the at least one projector is positioned at the front of the upper seating area.

The present invention provides a method for prefabricating, transporting, and rapidly assembling a portable, rigid, dome-shaped structure, with the structural integrity to enable the suspension of extensive hardware and supplies. Said structure would be shaped for acoustic purposes, extremely durable, and allow for extensive climate control. Said structure would be able to be fabricated in a wide range of sizes and shipped to remote locations.
