An emerging technology that is rapidly gaining attention, dynamic projection mapping on moving animatronic figures is currently still largely limited to the world’s largest theme parks, where it is supported by specialist creative engineering teams and extensive research and development. Through a collaborative partnership between CurtainUp, ThemedMotion and 7thSense, that is changing.
Together, the three companies have combined their expertise to create a proven, turnkey solution that makes dynamic projection mapping on animatronic figures achievable for a much wider range of attractions and experiences. By undertaking the research, integration and technical development in advance, the partnership enables clients to adopt this powerful storytelling medium without the cost, complexity or risk of developing the technology themselves.
At the heart of the solution is the seamless integration of world-class technologies and creative expertise. CurtainUp leads the creative and technical integration of each project, ensuring every element works together to deliver a compelling audience experience. ThemedMotion provides industry-leading animatronic hardware alongside media production tailored specifically for dynamic projection mapping. 7thSense delivers the high-performance media technology that makes the illusion possible, combining high-frame-rate playback with real-time position tracking to keep projected imagery perfectly aligned with the moving figure, creating a convincing and immersive result.
The result is a fully integrated solution that allows clients to harness one of themed entertainment’s most engaging storytelling techniques with confidence. Rather than investing in years of research and bespoke engineering, clients can work with an experienced team that has already solved the technical challenges, delivering a reliable, scalable solution ready for deployment in attractions around the world.
