Location: Wet
n' Wild - Orlando, FL
Techni-lux's extensive themed
attraction design experience was called into play for a very unique
attraction that was developed for Wet n' Wild Orlando. Disco H2O is
the worlds first float-thru disco. Several design issues had to be addressed
including product utilization in a wet hostile enviroment, lack of maintenance,
accessibility, and power consumption. Over 130 Pulsar
LED products were utilized for their ability to fit all requirements.
Although a dealer provided all installation, Techni-Lux provided the
programming. A series of ten different sequences are randomly selected
every 30 seconds, some of these are also audio driven with a link to
the sound system. ShowCad
Artist was selected as the PC based controller best suited for this
application. In order to help the client and design team better realize
the scope and importance of lighting on the overall attraction, Render
Blender created several static renderings and even a full ride through
animation complete with people. Thus far the audience reactions have
been phenomenal with this quickly becoming the star attraction. Whoever
said disco is dead has not been to Wet n' Wild Orlando.

U. S. Grant Hotel
Location: San Diego, CA
The U. S. Grant hotel, originally built by the son
of President Ulysses S. Grant to honor the memory of his father,
recently underwent major renovations inside and out--including
new architectural lighting. The SGM Palco 3 and Pulsar ChromaBatten
fixtures were used to accomodate the different angle and throw
distance requirements in order to give the building a more sculpted
feel while providing a long term low maintenance lighting solution.
Control is provided by the ShowCad Artist PC-based system.

Forestville Baptist Church
Location: Greenville, SC
Forestville
Baptist Church contacted Techni-Lux Design Services when they
started planning construction for their new sanctuary. A lighting
system was designed to meet all of the church's needs without
being needlessly flashy or obtrusive in the room. Special care
was taken to work with the architects and contractors to ensure
proper support for the system was put in place during construction,
and custom power distros and rigging were designed and ordered
to make installation and maintenance of the system as easy as
possible. Additionally, Techni-Lux staff were on site to supervise
fixture placement and provide training for the facility staff
in operation of the console and basic design concepts.

Jungle Boogie
Location: Chula
Vista Resort, Wisconsin Dells, WI
This water ride is part of a newly opened indoor
facility that encompasses over 60,000 square feet of watery fun
that is heated so it can be enjoyed year-round. The bowl part
of the ride also uses the Pulsar LED fixtures used by Wet 'n Wild
to maintain safety in such a wet corrosive environment, but this
is the first slide we know of that allows the rider to choose
his experience. The Techni-Lux staff built and programmed an interface
system that allows the riders to choose from 3 different themes
of lighting and music. Several versions of each theme are used
to insure a new experience every time. Techni-Lux also consulted
on other attractions in the facility, including an enclosed slide
with a fiber optic trail of light above you throughout the ride.

Der Flyvende Kuffert (The Flying
Trunk)
Location: Tivoli
Gardens - Copenhagen, Denmark
Techni-Lux Design was recently asked by Sally Corp
of Jacksonville, FL to work with the world's first theme park
on an attraction re-hab honoring Denmark's native son, Hans Christian
Andersen. The Flying Trunk dark ride was in need of a modern lighting
system and a new look, Techni-Lux designed a system that was installed
and programmed during a spring maintenance cycle and was able
to re-open with the parks festival celebrating H.C.A.'s 200th
birthday. The opportunity to work on this world renowned attraction
was truly an honor and privilege.
