Sony unveils haptic Jumanji experience at Times Square headquarters
Ahead of the release of Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Sony has unveiled a new experience at its visitor attraction in Times Square, New York, which uses 3D and haptic technology to create an immersive experience based on the movie.
Installed at Sony Square NYC – a public showcase for the latest in Sony entertainment and technology that opened last year – the new Jumanji experience plays out in the form of an interactive game where players must save the world of Jumanji by going on a perilous journey to retrieve a precious jewel.
In the experience, visitors wear a haptic vest and 3D glasses. They are then 'dropped' in the Jumanji jungle, playing one of the new movie’s four characters.
Once in game, they must explore the jungle, feeling each movement as the haptic vest reacts to objects such as stones, branches and coconuts thrown by animals.
The temporary Jumanji exhibit debuted on 30 November and ends its run on 8 January 2018. The film will be released in cinemas on 20 December.
