Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, USA — The International Society of Automation (ISA) announces the opportunity to attend an exclusive, behind the scenes technology Walt Disney World® tour in conjunction with ISA Automation Week 2012: Technology and Solutions Event, held 24–27 September 2012, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, USA.

These unique tours, arranged in cooperation with Walt Disney World, are only open to full-conference attendees. There are two tours from which to choose, both taking place on Monday, 24 September 2012.

  • At EPCOT®, the Mission: SPACE and Test Track tour will showcase the operation, maintenance, advanced safety systems and controls of the two attractions. The tour includes an opportunity to ride both attractions and participate in a question-and-answer session with Greg B. Hale, chief safety officer and vice president of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, and ISA Automation Week 2012 keynote speaker.
  • At Disney's Hollywood Studios®, the Lights, Motors, Action! tour will focus on the safety and technical components involved in a stunt show. Backstage visitors will see the specialized stunt cars and garage, the costuming building and flame suit, and will get a tour of the stunt show set. Viewing of the stunt show from VIP seating and a question-and-answer session with a pyrotechnics and entertainment special-effects subject-matter expert are included.
A fee of $45 applies for each tour and includes transportation to and from the park as well as refreshments.

“ISA Automation Week has become the gathering place for technical information, networking and best practices for automation professionals worldwide,” said Dr. Peter Martin, ISA Automation Week 2012 program chair. “Innovations in the annual event continue with the addition of seeing automation technology applied in a different setting. We are truly excited to be able to offer these technology tours to attendees” he added.
