“Fly Over China”: A Catalyst for the Integrated Development of Cinema Spaces

As the first flying theatre project introduced in Capital Cinema, Flying Over China is a collaborative effort between Capital Cinema and Rio-Tech. It serves as Rio-Tech’s inaugural flying theatre inside a commercial complex and also a demonstration in collaboration with Capital Cinema to blend a theme park with a commercial complex.

The flying theatre integrates cutting-edge entertainment technologies, including multi-degree motion benches, giant sphere screen projection and simulation stunts, dedicating to bringing audiences an immersive flying experience. Utilizing the motion and environmental effects enables the riders to be completely immersed in the movie with the full sensation of gliding and flying.

And an 18-meter giant sphere screen enhances the sense of immersion, offering riders a panoramic view of the landscape from a first-person perspective. The two-floor flying platform can accommodate up to 32 riders.

With the advantage of “simulating a large space with a small venue,” it aims to provide diverse experiences and solutions to cinema scenarios, thereby creating a holistic cultural entertainment consumption space.

The city sub-centre site of Capital Cinema now offers six interactive shows per day, inviting riders to embark on a fascinating journey of discovery!

Rio-Tech is committed to leveraging its technology and expertise in the field of immersive interactive entertainment, working hand in hand with Capital Cinema to advance innovative and integrated development of cinema spaces. Together, they explore the “screening +” business integration model, injecting fresh vitality into the cultural consumption market.
