HARDWARE PLATFORM

TITAN Hardware Ecosystem

TITAN is a centralized attraction control ecosystem designed to synchronize media, lighting, effects, ride vehicle audio, and show automation across large-scale entertainment environments. Built for theme parks and immersive attractions, TITAN provides deterministic control and sub-millisecond synchronization across thousands of devices.

TITAN-SHOW-CORE

Central Show Control Server

TITAN-SHOW-CORE is the brain of the TITAN platform. It executes all show logic, manages devices across the network, synchronizes system timing, and coordinates media, lighting, effects, and ride vehicle systems throughout the attraction.

Designed for mission-critical operation, the TITAN-SHOW-CORE uses a dual-CPU architecture, redundant power supplies, and RAID-protected storage to ensure continuous show operation. A hot-standby backup core can automatically take over in the event of failure, ensuring uninterrupted attraction performance.

The Core also acts as the system’s time authority, distributing synchronized timing to all TITAN devices using PTP and TITAN-NET scheduling.

Each attraction operates with a dedicated TITAN-SHOW-CORE system.

TITAN-MXE

Media Execution Engine

TITAN-MXE is the modular media playback platform for the TITAN ecosystem. It delivers high-performance audio and video playback with frame-accurate synchronization across the entire attraction.

The MXE chassis supports up to 16 hot-swappable media cards, allowing the system to be configured for any combination of audio and video outputs. Output routing is fully software-configurable through TITAN Designer, enabling flexible media distribution across scenes.

TITAN-MXE engines synchronize playback using the TITAN network clock, ensuring media playback aligns perfectly with lighting, effects, and ride vehicle audio.

Media Card Options

The TITAN-MXE Media Execution Engine uses a fully modular card architecture, allowing each system to be configured for the specific needs of the attraction. Media cards can be installed in any MXE slot and are automatically discovered and configured through TITAN Designer during deployment.

The TITAN-MXE chassis supports up to 16 media cards, allowing system integrators to configure media playback for projection-heavy attractions, audio-focused dark rides, or balanced multimedia experiences.

TITAN-LX-ENGINE

Lighting Control Processor

TITAN-LX-ENGINE is the dedicated lighting processor for the TITAN platform. It provides large-scale lighting control with powerful effects processing and integrated pixel mapping.

Each LX engine supports up to 1024 DMX universes, allowing it to control extremely large lighting systems found in theme park attractions and live productions.

The processor integrates directly with TITAN timelines and cue stacks to synchronize lighting effects with media playback and ride vehicle movement.

The TITAN-LX-ENGINE ensures lighting remains synchronized with all other show systems.

TITAN-DMX-NODE

Distributed Lighting Node

TITAN-DMX-NODE provides distributed DMX output for large attractions where lighting fixtures are spread across multiple physical areas.

Each node connects to the TITAN network and outputs DMX locally, reducing cable runs and simplifying installation across large scenes.

DMX nodes are commonly installed within individual scenes to drive nearby fixtures while remaining fully synchronized with the central TITAN system.

TITAN-GPIO-INTERFACE

Show Control I/O Controller

TITAN-GPIO-INTERFACE connects the TITAN digital control system to physical show hardware.

These devices provide programmable input and output interfaces for sensors, animatronics, effects systems, and environmental triggers.

High-density racks support up to 128 configurable GPIO points, while smaller distributed nodes provide 8 inputs and 8 outputs for localized control.

animatronic triggers solenoids and air cannons fog machines and water effects scene trigger sensors pressure mats and limit switches

All I/O states are synchronized through TITAN-NET, ensuring effects trigger precisely with media and lighting cues.

TITAN-ZTS

Zone Tracking System

TITAN-ZTS provides ride vehicle tracking when an attraction does not provide vehicle position data from a ride PLC.

The system monitors sensors installed along the ride track to determine vehicle position and zone occupancy. Vehicle identification is typically performed using RFID tags when vehicles exit the station.

The ZTS platform supports up to 128 sensor inputs and expandable sensor modules for larger attractions.

Once vehicle positions are detected, TITAN-ZTS transmits zone information to the TITAN-SHOW-CORE so scenes can trigger correctly.

TITAN-RVP

Ride Vehicle Processor

TITAN-RVP is the onboard processing system installed on ride vehicles. It manages local media playback, onboard audio systems, and vehicle-mounted show effects.

Each RVP unit includes local media storage and a multi-channel audio engine capable of delivering up to 16 independent audio outputs.

Ride vehicle processors synchronize their internal clocks with the TITAN system to ensure onboard audio remains perfectly aligned with scene effects and media playback.

onboard audio playback local media storage dual wireless radios for reliable communication audio clock synchronization GPIO and relay interfaces CAN bus integration for vehicle systems

Communication between ride vehicles and the attraction network is handled through a custom RF sector network, ensuring stable connectivity along the ride path.

TITAN-SW

Show Network Switch

TITAN-SW switches form the high-performance backbone of the TITAN network. These switches are optimized for deterministic show control networks and provide PTP boundary clock support for accurate time synchronization.

Switch models are available for access, distribution, and core network roles. All models support a 10-gigabit backbone and redundant power supplies.

The TITAN-SW family ensures reliable communication between all devices in the attraction while maintaining the timing precision required for synchronized show operation.
