DisneyVision - Imagineering VR Lab EPCOT '94

Funny finding this.. The same year D.I visited RSAD and invited a bunch of us to come and try this out. it was fantastic and much better than the version they placed in Downtown disney. The big thing was the HMD. unlike those you find on the commecial market these really covered your field of view REALLy making you feel like you were flying! seriously. i though the bikelike chair was moving and it wasnt.. The hmd were stereoscopic as well. This is the next thing in games.

What a neat find. I was talking about this last year, and didn't even think of searching YouTube for any "proof" it existed. Good deal. Thanks for posting.

I really like the video you put together. I was at Epcot back when this attraction was open and got to be one of the guys sent up on stage. Love it.

I remember being told no to wander too far outside the city though. I guess that was before the days of invisible walls to keep you in.

The space this attraction was at, is being used for a museum of the history of Epcot, or was as of May '07.

That's the Future World background music created in 1994.
