System for providing a virtual reality experience

A method of operating a virtual reality experience, the method comprising:

• providing a vehicle controlled to follow a pre-determined path, a virtual reality controller including a memory and a processor, one or more headsets each including a virtual reality generator and at least one screen, and a synchronisation sensor including at least one accelerometer adapted to sense movement of the vehicle;
• establishing a master data set relating to the movement of the vehicle along the path, the master data set relating to forces experience by the vehicle as it moves along the path;
• saving the master data set on the memory of the virtual reality controller;
• comparing data from the synchronisation sensor to the master data set to determine the position of the vehicle relative to the path;
• and
• synchronising the virtual reality generator with the location of the vehicle.

A system for providing a virtual reality experience, the system comprising:

• a vehicle controlled to move along a pre-determined path;
• one or more headsets, each headset including a virtual reality generator and at least one screen;
• and
• a synchronisation sensor including at least one accelerometer adapted to sense movement of the vehicle and generate movement data indicative of the movement of the vehicle,
• a virtual reality controller including a processor and memory, the controller configured to:
• store master data indicative of forces experienced by the vehicle as it moves along the path;
• receive the movement data from the synchronisation sensor;
• determine the location of the vehicle along the path based upon the movement data from the synchronisation sensor and the master data;
• and
• control the virtual reality generator including synchronise the virtual reality generator with the location of the vehicle on the path.
