Hi Stephen. Just to confirm, your users sit in a virtual tube and are shown a VR video of the water slide? You say you launched at a waterpark so it is difficult to establish if you merge virtual and physical or are purely virtual.

@davidjlowe Hey David – sorry, I didn't see the notification for your post! Users are riding down a real waterslide. Please see our video:
Our system accurately tracks riders as they move down the tube so that everything is synced perfectly and our Ride Management System manages multiple experiences so that users can choose what type of VR experience they'd like to have as they go down the slide. We've had 40,000 riders experience it since March and at 2 Euros per ride, the park is very happy to have a new revenue stream. We'll have more updates on future installations soon!
