Indeed, Simtec has been very successful with its
HEXaFLITE flying theatre concept, based on a 6 degree of freedom motion system. To be more flexible in regard t o the number of seats and to be able to offer solutions for small to medium spaces it has upgraded the smallest version of its HEXaFLITE systems, the HEXaFLITE 16, to a HEXaFLITE 24.
Andreas continues: “In our flying theatres we integrate people into the story, but this only works by delivering components with top quality – the ride system, AV system, projection, screen and media.
The movement of our systems supports the media content to create the perfect illusion.”
