Experience no.20 THE FUTURE IS WILD Les Animaux du Futur
The expedition vehicles launch you on an interactive safari far, far into the future, across steppes, marshland and tropical jungle. Armed with binoculars and sensor bracelets, you will discover and communicate with animals that could be living on our planet in 5 million, 100 million and 200 million years from now such as toratons, spitfire birds, carakillers, squibbons, and more. This whole new type of experience combines reality with virtual reality so that you can ride into the future... today!
The technology The binoculars contain an inbuilt camera that films the backdrop to each scene whilst a computer adds animated animals on to the film sequence. Virtual reality is superimposed onto reality so that the animals come to life in their surroundings. The individual positioning system then enables you to interact with the animals thanks to the sensor bracelets. This immerses everyone in the attraction, giving them the chance to make contact with the animals and making their own experience unique.
A new theatre, created by Denis Laming, has been built for «The Future is Wild». It forms an ellipse and represents a Noah’s Ark for the future to carry the distant descendents of today’s animals. With this new theatre, Denis Laming also reinvents the architectural range of Futuroscope, creating a setting that does justice to the experience.
