A
few weeks ago, I wrote and published an article on my online blog regarding two unique virtual reality ride simulators at Timezone - Robinsons Place Lipa which
have brought back my hopes on experiencing the thrills of trying it for myself.
Reading one of my pieces once more while adding new stories made me think that
something is wrong and I have to look again at those simulators. And I never
doubted or questioned my own thoughts and figured out that there is an erratum
in that article and it happened to be the title of more of what I'm about to
share with you.
It
has been a few months since these simulators have landed at TZ Rob Lipa and I
was impressively awed by how they look at the outside to think that they are just
for show. But looking at these VR headsets sitting around the chairs have given
me second thoughts as well as the fact that they are 9D VR ride simulators. I
felt a little curious after looking at them closely for a short time and began asking
myself, "What makes 9D different from 4D?" Well, after weeks of
curiosity, the answer to that question came when I looked at a monitor sporting
at the front of a larger 9D simulator that looks like a car.
Don't
let me give you a longer explanation about 9D virtual reality since I'm not a
technical type of person, but I can give you one simple difference. Both 4D and
9D VR ride simulators have a wide variety of environments for anyone to try.
However, based on what I've seen, it seems that 9D has more realism and premise
than 4D. And if I compare it to what I've seen on SM City Lipa's 4D Simulator a
few years ago, it was all clear to me and felt overwhelmed about it. If you
happen to capture what you've seen on both simulators and still have them on
your storage device, then look again and see the difference for yourself if you
dare.
Anyway,
I am glad that I have rectified myself from a matter that was a long time
coming for me before I began having second thoughts as if there is something
wrong. As I've mentioned before in one of my previous articles, virtual reality
remains resilient amidst the challenges brewing around the global tech market
and the likes of the 9D ride simulators and VR headsets are the essential
introduction of this intriguing technology to the public but they come at your
own expense. It is always best to keep yourself calm and collected when using a
VR headset or experiencing thrills on a VR ride simulator; otherwise, it can be
a toll to you and your health.
Anyway,
why don't you visit any Timezone branch in your area, especially inside Robinsons
Place Lipa, and try to experience the thrills of 9D virtual reality if you happen
to find a ride simulator. Just remember to inform any of the staff to help you
out before enjoying the ride.
