FAQ
What is a trackless dark ride system?
A trackless ride system uses vehicles that are not physically bound to a rail or track. Instead, they navigate using guide wires or optical navigation, allowing more flexible movement and creative layouts.
How is a trackless ride different from traditional track-bound systems?
Trackless systems eliminate the need for steel track and switching mechanisms. This opens up new design possibilities like non-linear paths, intersections, or randomised routes – all of which enhance storytelling and guest immersion.
Are trackless systems more expensive to install?
While they appear more high-tech, trackless systems often have lower infrastructure costs than traditional systems. No track means less civil engineering and faster installation.
Is programming and controlling trackless vehicles complex?
Yes, the technology behind trackless vehicle programming is advanced. Thanks to our expertise, it is a smooth process for us. We have spent decades refining proven software platforms and control systems. That means even complex routing, synchronized movement or branching paths can be implemented efficiently and reliably.
What about maintenance?
Trackless vehicles are self-contained. Fewer external components mean lower wear, easier access, and less downtime. That translates into more uptime and operational efficiency.
Are trackless rides safe during technical issues?
Yes. Vehicles can be programmed to return automatically to a safe location or station in the event of an error, minimising risk and removing the need for manual evacuation procedures.
Can trackless systems support more creative storytelling?
Absolutely. Designers can create rides with branching paths, variable speeds, or even reactive behaviour. This makes for a more immersive and varied guest experience.
How long can the vehicles operate on a full charge?
Most trackless vehicles run 12 – 14 hours on a full battery, easily covering a full day of operation with overnight charging.
