A2:
There are many examples. Some include: 1.
Position control of the many new styles of motion simulators.
This technology is "borrowed" from the military and
aviation simulation. This is typically hydraulics rather than
pneumatics. 2.
Roller coaster brakes (pneumatics) to pinch a fin beneath a
vehicle to slow or stop it 3.
Load/Unload gates and ramps are positioned with either
pneumatics or hydraulics 4.
"Animated figures" and moving props called
"show action equipment".
For example the gorilla in the King Kong attraction, or the
falling wall at the Wild West Stunt show. 5.
"Boat Stops" in water rides, used to hold boats in
the flume to achieve the proper spacing between boats are typically
actuated by pneumatics. |
