There are many types but they fall into the heading of entertainment unlike the ones used for training. Simulator rides work by showing a film and moving at the same time. This information if fixed and cannot be changed without the software to rewrite a new programe. A film or experience can be made of any subject as they are created manually. A film of any given subect is given to the manufacturer who records movement to go with a film, you then end up with a video source and a movement disk, this can be preloaded onto a computer or manually set up using a floppy disk so when the film and disk are placed in the system it is controlled by a computer and a controller to make the film start at the same time as the motion.
Passenger motion simulators are used as amusement rides with a seating platform remaining parallel to the ground while being moved in a circular motion along a vertical plane. Larger scale motion theaters include "Air Time" at Carowinds, "Corkscrew Hill" at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man at Universal's Islands of Adventure, Star Tours at Disney's Hollywood Studios, Mission: SPACE at Epcot, the new ride The Simpsons Ride at Universal Studios Florida, and the now closed Akbar's Adventure Tours in Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. Motion theaters found in a traveling carnival include the "Yellow Submarine."
