The ride features custom, motion-based vehicles that seat 6 passengers, each armed with a
stun blaster.
The seats offer multi-degrees-of-freedom, allowing guests to experience the motion of the
vehicles synced with the action on the media screens.
The ride offers the world’s first-ever virtual loop on a dark ride.
Riders’ favorite DC Comics SUPER HEROES can be seen on 17 screens, including 5 17’x30’
interactive 3D screens.
The ride uses real-time gaming allowing the characters and elements to react with the 600
Virtual and Tangible targets that are featured throughout the ride including, for the first
time ever, an interactive Fog Screen with targets that guests will ride through.
The interaction system is entirely wireless, including the communication between the
vehicles, targets, stun gun devices and scoring system.
The interaction system is designed to allow an unlimited amount of targets to be displayed
during the on-screen shooting sequences.
Guests have the ability to shoot up to 20 times per second. When guests shoot at targets
with their stun blasters, it only takes 5 milliseconds for the interaction computer to react
on-screen.
Other targets include villains, helicopters, Lex Corps robots aka “Lexbots”, trucks, falling
oil drums, etc.
The ride experience is 3:20 in length.
