Technifex 4D action seats for Hawaiian show

Technifex’s custom designed and engineered 4D action seating and special effects have been used in the newly repurposed IMAX theatre at the Polynesian Cultural Center on the Big Island of Hawaii for a show about its heritage.

Produced by Michael Lee Design, with a state-of-the art, high definition audio-visual theatrical system provided by Electrosonic, this new large screen production engages all the guest’s senses while presenting the natural wonders of Hawaii and the spirit of the Hawaiian people.

Technifex installed 252 4D seats with motion bases. Guests experience stereo speakers mounted in the head rests, a motion tilt system, face air blasts and mist, low frequency emitters (butt kickers), and scent spray during the film.

Additionally, Technifex supplied atmospheric effects to the theatre completing the sensory experience including hissing volcanic vents in the queue and rotary sub-woofers that create a deep low frequency vibration equal to the feeling of an erupting volcano.

The theater facility has been themed inside and out and transformed from being a traditional theatre facility to an ancient Hawaiian volcano.

Using black light scenic painting, the interior of the theatre appears as a cool volcanic chamber with rows of seats stepping down the inner slope of the volcano.
