Ride manufacturer ART Engineering and hand-gesture technology creator Triotech have collaborated on a Ninja ride experience for LegoLand Windsor, UK. The daring world of ninjas is coming to the resort in May 2017 with the launch of Lego Ninjago World, featuring a 4D, hand-gesture enabled ride. Lego Ninjago World will take guests through interactive Ninjago character scenes to test balance, agility, speed and creativity: Zane’s Temple Build, Kai’s Spinners and Cole’s Rock Climb. After tackling the activities and perfecting their Spinjitzu skills, guests are ready for Lego Ninjago: The Ride.

The Ride uses 4D effects including heat, smoke and wind alongside 3D image projection by Triotech throughout. Maestro hand-gesture technology by Triotech lets riders throw virtual fire balls, shock waves, ice and lightning using their hands, and intuitively adapts to each individual’s playing style. Up to four ninjas can sit in each ride vehicle, manufactured by ART, to have their skills tested as they score points battling against snake tribes, skeleton ghosts and King of the Skulkuns. Guests will ultimately face The Great Devourer – a giant serpent who can only be defeated by the group working together and demonstrating the best Spinjitzu moves. More than 20 new Lego models can be found in Ninjago World, including two five-foot guardian dragons built from 77,280 LEGO bricks protecting the entrance, models of Master Wu and the Ninjago heroes themselves.
