Pooh's Hunny Hunt is a unique trackless dark ride located at Tokyo Disneyland.
Seven years later, during a period when the character was undergoing a resurgence in popularity, plans for a Winnie the Pooh attraction were approved at Walt Disney World.
With a budget of over $130 million, and featuring a never-before-used 'trackless' ride technology, Pooh's Hunny Hunt opened in late 2000 to large crowds and praise by many Disney internet fansites.
Upon leaving the station, and making a left into the ride, the Honey pots stop in a line in front of a short video which has Christopher Robin giving Pooh a balloon.
The honey pots then go backward down a hallway filled with branches with Tigger seen clinging to one with a beehive stuck to his head.
Pooh is also seen hanging onto a living hot air balloon with a honey pot-like basket trying to reach for a beehive.
Pooh's Hunny Hunt uses a trackless ride system developed by Walt Disney Imagineering.
Although other trackless ride systems do exist on the market (such as ETF's Mystic Mover), Pooh's Hunny Hunt differs in that it uses an array of sensors as opposed to a dedicated wire embedded in the floor.
This data is then used to move an individual honey pot car through a complicated matrix embedded within the actual floor tiles.
Every few seconds, the master computer generates a random path and ‘steers’ the honey pot in real-time, so as the cars roll through the ride the vehicles are, in fact, being told where to go.
