Rogue Rides, a new brand powered by BoldMove Nation, announces its new advanced trackless ride system with omnidirectional movements: The Lola. The ride system offers smooth operation and full vehicle customization.
Recognized with the Park World Excellence Award for Industry Icon, Benoit Cornet bows on 30 years of successful dark ride experience. He explains, “I built dark rides around the world with all kind of vehicles from different manufacturers. However, I hadn’t seen one that moves the way we want in order to make the experience more dynamic and immersive. We often work with regional parks who have more limited budgets and want to fit a dark ride into an existing building. With Rogue Rides we address these issues, and so much more: the vehicles can run all day as batteries are recharged continuously, and maintenance is easy. We can equip the vehicles with sound and interactivity, align them with media and AV through advanced show control software. The movements of the vehicles allow for a very dynamic experience that is truly unmatched up until today.”
Trackless and limitless fun
Utilizing trackless technology, Rogue Rides enables vehicles to navigate autonomously without traditional rails or floor cables. High-precision SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology ensures accurate positioning, allowing vehicles to move freely while maintaining safety standards. Software-controlled trajectory adjustments provide flexibility, enabling ride layouts to be modified effortlessly. In addition, integrated security features ensure smooth operation while allowing for easy vehicle evacuation when necessary.
High-quality customization
Every Rogue Rides vehicle is fully customizable to match the attraction’s theme from sleek modern designs with integrated LED lighting to elaborately themed vehicles that seamlessly blend into immersive environments. Even the smallest details, such as seat fabric, lap bar materials, and stamped logos, can be tailored to enhance the guest experience. By combining premium materials with superior comfort, Rogue Rides guarantees a high-end experience that captivates visitors.
Advanced technologies for a seamless ride
Rogue Rides’ advanced Mecanum wheel technology allows vehicles to move in any direction – forward, backward, sideways, or even diagonally. This range of movement creates an exhilarating experience for riders, unlocking a variety of motion patterns, including skidding, drifting, and full rotations. The compact design optimizes space for theming and equipment.
Equipped with the latest and safest lithium batteries and contactless induction charging, Rogue Rides ensures uninterrupted operation with minimal maintenance. SLAM technology allows vehicles to navigate complex environments with pinpoint accuracy, making them ideal for dark ride attractions. With two decades of software innovation for logistics and healthcare industries, all ride components are integrated into a single, user-friendly control system.
A fully immersive 360° experience
By minimizing non-themed areas, the ride system allows for richer storytelling, fully engaging guests in every moment of the attraction. From conceptualization to execution, Rogue Rides works closely with master planners, engineers, and theming specialists to create a fully cohesive and immersive attraction that captivates audiences of all ages.
Rogue Rides prioritizes seamless ride operations by providing an intuitive control panel designed with ergonomic efficiency in mind. The advanced ride software simplifies vehicle management while seamlessly integrating media, AV components, interactivity, and special effects for a truly engaging experience. Operators benefit from an easy-to-use system that ensures effortless ride control and streamlined attraction management
Cornet concludes: “With its groundbreaking trackless ride system, Rogue Rides is transforming the landscape of themed entertainment.
