Attractions that can be enjoyed at Porsche Experience Center LA
Is it about two years ago?
I wrote that Porsche is developing something that allows you to experience attractions from the car you actually drive using virtual reality technology with a company called Holoride.

◆Porsche + Holoride + Discovery offers a new VR experience
◆VR entertainment in the back seat of Porsche
At last, this technology is actually AmericanPorsche Experience Center Los Angeles (PEC LA) has started to provide it, although it is still in trial operation.
Simply put, this technology with a company called Holoride is
"Linking the physical movement of the moving vehicle to the content flowing in the VR headset in real time"
something like.
In other words, if it's a game like the Sony PlayStation, you're just "playing the game by looking at the screen," and even if you can make small movements just by wearing a VR headset, you're "yourself." I think that "it doesn't move much from the spot", but this technology "can experience the world of the game while feeling the movement of the running car".
I think it's a great experience.
Of course, if you go to a large amusement park system, I think it is possible to experience VR by riding a vehicle made as an attraction.
However, in that case, the route is fixed, and in a sense, I think it's something to play in a "perfectly made movement."
But this is because PEC LA's one has a VR experience in the back seat of the so-called Cayenne, which is driven normally, so the movement is also slightly different every time.
By the way, VR processes the driving data from Cayenne in real time so that there is no time lag, so it seems unlikely that people who enjoy VR will get motion sickness.
On the contrary, it is hard to get drunk.
The game content is a game that fights aliens
This time, the game offered at PEC LA is an original game co-developed in Pittsburgh with a company called Schell Games in Pennsylvania, and it is said that it will fight the alien "Cymex" on a spaceship.
The content seems simple, but surprisingly it seems to be quite immersive and fun ^ ^
I wonder if it will be possible at PEC Tokyo
First of all, this VR game ride experience will be available at Porsche Experience Center LA, but if the trial operation in this LA gives good results in the future, it will be provided at PEC all over the world. It is said that it will be.
One day, there may be a day when you can experience Holoride at PEC Tokyo in Kisarazu ^ ^
By the way, in PEC LA, this game can be played from 13 years old and over, one game is about 10 minutes, and the fee is 49 dollars (about 6,000 yen).
