Animatronics is a very clever technology, used mainly in the cinema to revitalize the body parts and faces of artificially created characters. It can be artificial castles of actors, robots, animals, monsters and various aliens. If they are not created with the help of computer special effects, but in the form of full-fledged layouts, only an animatronics expert can revive them. And Disney has now surpassed itself in this area.
We have already told you that at the end of May of this year Disney opened in its Animal Kingdom Park a theme area dedicated to the fantasy world from the James Avatar movie “Avatar”. Many Americans have already visited Pandora: World of Avatar and were delighted with the attraction called Na'vi River Journey Ride. Visitors float in boats along the fantastic fluorescent jungle of the planet Pandora, and in the very final they encounter an alien shaman who performs a song for them.
Na'vi Shaman made with the help of the latest advances in the field of animatronics. It moves so realistically, smoothly and naturally, that some visitors could not believe that they were just a very elaborate and designed robot. To begin with, we offer you to see what this robot looks like.
Here is the same robot, but a little closer.
TechCrunch journalists managed to visit the exhibition of robotics in Boston and see for themselves how this robot looks inside. Disney engineers have created a truly amazing work of art using the latest technology and research in the field of animatronics. In the near future, the company's specialists plan to create more of these robots for their amusement parks, including for the future of the park based on Star Wars, which we told you about recently.
