Disney Unveils Elevation Change Illusion Patent Images

The Walt Disney World Magic website has released patent images of an elevation change illusion. The image shows an example of how this technology can be used to create a convincing illusion of changing elevations in a theme park environment.

The patent, which was filed by Disney and has been published online, describes a method for creating the illusion using a combination of visual effects and physical changes to the environment. The image shows a park guest looking up at a building that appears to be shifting and changing elevation, with the surrounding environment also seeming to change.

The technology described in the patent uses a combination of projection mapping, LED lighting, and other visual effects to create the illusion of changing elevations. This could potentially be used in theme parks and other entertainment venues to create more immersive experiences for guests.
