Example 3

This embodiment provides a method for simulating a cosmic roaming experience using an immersive experience device according to embodiment 1 of the present invention, which specifically includes the following steps.

Firstly, tourists enter an experience cabin on a platform to take a seat and perform safety protection work along with guidance through an entrance, wait for workers to debug the equipment and prepare to start showing after checking the safety condition.

After the experience process is formally started, the equipment starts to operate under the control of the control module, and the display screen of the front window glass of the simulated cockpit 7 starts to show a film simulating space flight.

The movie starts with the airship carrying the guest preparing to take off from the base. At the moment, the simulated cockpit 7 descends to the lowest point along with the multi-dimensional motion platform, and the head is lifted up under the control of the control module to enter the takeoff posture. The projection 6 on the upper part of the airship projects images to the arc-shaped lifting well walls on two sides so as to simulate the environment around the airship, and tourists sitting in the simulated cabin can watch the images through the windows on two sides.

When the film is projected to the airship to start accelerating takeoff and fly off the earth, the simulation cabin platform starts accelerating movement upwards along the lifting shaft, and overload feeling brought by accelerating during takeoff is simulated. Meanwhile, the projections on the two sides start to play the animation with the mirror image sliding backwards to simulate the motion process of the flight.

When the film is projected to enter the orbit of the earth, the airship reaches the highest point, and the simulation cabin attitude rotates to the inclined attitude simulating orbit flying along with the rotating platform and downwards accelerates to fall to simulate the weightlessness state. The projections on both sides start projecting the environmental film of the universe. And when the next segment is projected, accelerating to fly to the front of the golden star, the simulation cabin carries the tourists in the cabin to fall to the lowest point of the lifting well.

When the film is projected to the state that the airship accelerates again from the earth orbit to the next planet, the simulation cabin correspondingly readjusts the angle to prepare for accelerating to move upwards to simulate the flying state.

In the following traveling process of going to a waterstar, a sun, a Halley comet, a mars, a wooden star, a soil star, a Tianwang star, a starfish and a meditation star, flying out of the solar system to reach a mannequin seat A (black hole) in the center of the galaxy system, a fairy seat clout (pulsar), a celestial star, an observation gamma ray and a fairy star system, and finally going back to the solar system, the simulation cabin circularly reciprocates in the lifting well to simulate the states of acceleration, orbit winding and hovering of the airship, and simultaneously the posture of the airship observed in the film is simulated by correspondingly adjusting the posture of the simulation cabin.

After the film showing is finished, the simulation cabin returns to the outlet, after the equipment is stably locked, the safety fixing equipment of the tourists is released, and the tourists leave the simulation cabin under guidance to prepare for receiving the next batch of tourists.

In the experience equipment, a simulation cockpit 7 is in a vertical lifting shaft 1 with a certain drop, the motion state of the simulation flight cockpit is controlled with audio-visual experience in a targeted manner at a proper time through up-down variable speed movement and angle change of a platform along with the change of showing content, and the driving experiences of weightlessness, overload and turning to centrifugation brought to a driver by the speed, posture and environment of a spacecraft in flight are more fully simulated from multiple dimensions, so that visitors are more immersed and personally on the scene to finish the popularization of astronomical knowledge in the process of seeing and playing.
