This
all-new "Terminator 2: 3D" adventure is, frame for
frame, the most expensive live action film ever produced, marking
the first time that interlocking three-dimensional images have
been projected onto three massive 23'x50' screens-the world's
largest 3-D installation, spanning 165 feet-and completely enveloping
guests in 180 degree of awe-inspiring excitement. Dr. Ken Jones,
on sabbatical from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratories in Pasadena,
CA, served as a consultant on this ground-breaking effort.
"Terminator
2: 3D" ROBOTS
The T-70 Terminator robot was creates exclusively for the "Terminator
2: 3D" attraction as the T-800 Endoskeleton, originally
seen in the Terminator films, was a product of the future, Year

T-70 soldiers in "Terminator 2: 3D," each standing
an imposing 8-feet tall and an expansive 4-feet wide.
T-1,000,000
Entirely computer generated by a team of 47 digital artists.
Commonly referred to as T-meg.
T-800

T-1000
Morphing metal menace.
"FAT

a hefty 1,500-pounds
THE
PROJECTION
Utilizing the most sophisticated digital system: imaging technology
ever created, "Terminator 2: 3D" requires six fully
automated 70mm Iwerks projectors to launch the 3-D images onto
the three massive 23'x50' screens. The world's largest 3-D installation,
spanning 165 feet, the "Terminator 2: 3D" screen will
engulf guests in 180 degrees of awe-inspiring excitement.
ABOUT
THE AUDIO
"Terminator 2: 3D" features a state-of-the- system:
art sound system created by Soundelux that pumps a total of
45,620 watts through 159 speakers. The result-one of the most
technically advanced sound systems in the world. All processing
equipment-from mixers to crossovers-for the attraction's audio
set-up will be housed within one computer system. Using cutting
edge computer software, all audio system connections and configurations
will be made on screen, producing a singular sound sensation
unique only to "Terminator 2: 3D."
This
highly innovative method allows audio engineers to modify and
construct new sound configurations by simply rendering them
on a computer screen rather than laboriously re-wiring the more
than 100 miles of interwoven cable.
