VR-1 is a medium-scale attraction designed by Sega. It was first seen opening alongside Yokohama Joypolis in 1994[3].
The VR-1 is effectively a larger AS-1 - a large motion simulator which twists and turns in line with what is projected onto a screen. However, the VR-1 is different from its rivals in that riders need to wear "virtual reality" headsets to see the picture.
The only VR-1 thought to currently be in service is a version at Joypolis Tokyo. Copies were also features of SegaWorld London and Sega World Sydney when they existed.
