Augmented Thrill Ride

Virtual reality on a real roller coaster? No problem, here you go. In early 2014, Prof. Dipl.-Des. Thomas Wagner and a daring group of students started a ground-breaking research project with renowned rollercoaster manufacturer Mack Rides and Europa-Park: By using VR headsets on real rollercoasters, a totally new kind of experience and attraction was born.

I was working on the general concept as well as the 3D assets.

Team: Artur Eurich, David Kebrich, Aleksej Skrypnik

Supervised by Prof. Holger Deuter, Prof. Matthias Pfaff, Prof. Thomas Wagner
