Rod Findley, President of Location Based Entertainment at Immotion Group #IMMO talks about them teaming up with Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund to unveil their groundbreaking virtual reality experience, 'Gorilla Trek'.

Highlights

This exciting new VR experience will take guests to the rainforests of Rwanda on a mission to study one of nature's most intriguing yet endangered animals - the mountain gorilla.

Immotion is proud to partner on this project with the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, the renowned gorilla conservation organization. Tara Stoinski, CEO of the Fund, guides the mission, giving unprecedented access and stunning insights into seldom-seen gorilla behaviors. Produced by Immotion's Emmy Award-winning team, it is the world's first 360º VR motion-platform experience to showcase the mountain gorillas of Rwanda.

Edutainment - the mixture of education and entertainment - is at the heart of the 'Location Based Entertainment' division's work, whether it be educating guest about humpback whales in the South Pacific, or tiger sharks in the Bahamas, or generating awareness about ocean pollution. This, combined with our motion seats, sets Immotion's work apart.
