ABSTRACT:
The Seat Base Motion Controller provides automated control of seat motion for seat systems employed in providing combined visual and motion experience for patrons in amusement rides and the like. Occupant safety features are integrated within the seat motion control system and centralized control of multiple motion bases is accomplished. Motion control of the seat bases is responsive to a position signal input coordinated with a visual presentation viewed by the patrons. Self contained power systems for the actuation means of the seat base allows sizing of an entertainment threater to accommodate anticipated audiences. Independent control and operation of each motion base precludes the need for shutting down the entire theater if a fault exists in one motion base or the safety systems on that motion base are activated.
