Original Kurzfassung:
In this talk Mark will discuss how advances in computing power, display technology, and sensing devices, along with ever accelerating trends of miniaturization and cost reduction are enabling exciting new ways for Imagineers to create magical Disney worlds. He will present some of the new techniques and technology being used to light, animate, and augment Disney theme parks, bringing the world of Disney animated features to life in ways never before possible. He will also demonstrate how these very same advances in technology are changing the theme park design process itself. He will give examples of the work of the Creative Technology Group, a new group at Imagineering dedicated to developing innovative computer-based tools and techniques to be used in the design of Disney theme parks, resorts, and attractions worldwide. Mark will describe how advanced virtual reality technology such as head-mounted displays, high precision motion capture systems, and ultra-high definition display walls are being used to help designers at WDI experience, and evaluate attraction designs months and years before the actual construction process begins in the real world,
