[edit] Running on a Personal Computer
I just wanted to leave a note that I've changed the reference that the ride is controlled "by a simple program running on a personal computer." While a PC is commonly used for error reporting on a ride, I have never seen one used to control one. The industry standard is to use a programmable logic controller. In fact, as a failsafe, most modern rides (and all of those controlled by Consign AG) have two PLCs that must send the same commands as a fail safe in the event of processor failure.
