Single-seat VR motion chair with haptics and scent effects for museums, hotels, and cultural venues. Runs 4–30 minute volumetric and 360-degree films.
Voyager is a single-seat VR motion chair built by Positron for museums, cultural venues, hotels, cinemas, and event spaces. It delivers 8-minute volumetric and 360-degree films with synchronized motion, haptics, and scent effects. The chair moves through three axes of motion without inducing motion sickness, making it accessible for all ages.
Positron’s content library includes documentaries, art films, and educational stories shot in volumetric capture and photogrammetry. This positions Voyager for venues that prioritize narrative depth over action gameplay. The films run 4 to 30 minutes, with 8 minutes as the most common length. Multiple chairs can be synchronized for group experiences, or run independently for individual sessions.
The chair occupies 49 square feet per unit, including clearance for motion. It requires an attendant to operate, though Positron is developing an attendant-free version. Optional projection mapping or overhead video screens allow spectators to follow along with the experience.
Voyager launched in 2017 and has been installed in cultural venues globally. Pricing averages $25 per session, reflecting the premium positioning and longer duration compared to arcade VR attractions.
