And the best news? He's coming to the new Frozen area in Paris!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, the bosses of Disneyland Paris and Disney Imagineering (the inventors of the parks) gave a special glimpse behind the scenes. They unveiled their latest invention to the world for the first time. Forget the dolls that are fixed to the ground: this is the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-net-alsof-hij-uit-de-film-is-gestapt\"><strong>As if he had stepped out of the film<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes this Olaf so special is that he is completely <strong>wandering around<\/strong>. There are no wires attached to it and it is not standing on a trolley. It wobbles, wiggles and stumbles just like the clumsy snowman from the films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The creators have done everything possible to make it as realistic as possible:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>His skin is made of a special material that catches the light, just like fresh snow does.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>His eyes move, his mouth talks, and he can even respond to people.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Just like in the film, his carrot nose and arms can fall off.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hoe-werkt-het\"><strong>How does it work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Normally, robots in amusement parks are programmed: they perform the same trick every time. This Olaf is different. He is \u2018smart\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disney actually taught him to \u201cwalk\u201d like a child does: through trial and error. As a result, his movements do not feel wooden or mechanical, but rather very natural and funny. He can maintain his balance while walking through the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-waar-kan-je-hem-ontmoeten\"><strong>Where can you meet him?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is, of course, what we all want to know: when can we give him a <em>warm hug<\/em> give?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disneyland Paris has confirmed that this Olaf will be the star of the new <strong>\u201cArendelle Bay Show\u201d<\/strong>. This show will be on display in <strong>World of Frozen<\/strong>, the brand new themed area currently under construction at Walt Disney Studios Park (soon to be <em>Disney Adventure World<\/em> will be called).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Het klinkt bijna te mooi om waar te zijn, maar Disney heeft het vandaag \u00e9cht laten zien: een robot-Olaf die helemaal los rondloopt, met je praat \u00e9n eruitziet als echte sneeuw.
