What is the development history of bumper cars

1. Origin exploration stage:

-In the Eastern Zhou period of ancient China, a game similar to the bumper car game called "wheel hub strike" appeared. At that time, the capital city of Qi, Linzi, had a prosperous economy and horse drawn carriages were relatively common. Due to the lack of ancient traffic rules, people developed the collision between horse drawn carriages into a form of entertainment. However, this is fundamentally different from modern bumper cars, as it is highly dangerous and not a specific amusement activity held in a particular venue. It is just an activity with the embryonic form of bumper car entertainment.

2. Early development stage:

-In the 1920s, bumper cars began to appear abroad, but at this time, bumper cars were still in the early stages of development, with relatively simple technology and design.

-Early bumper cars were mainly Skynet bumper cars, which obtained electricity from the overhead power grid to drive the vehicles. This type of bumper car needs to be used in a specific venue and has high requirements for the construction and maintenance of the venue.

3. Introduction to China and Development Stage:

-In the 1980s, bumper cars truly entered China and became popular amusement equipment. In 1984, Shanghai Jinjiang Amusement Park opened, and the bumper car amusement project was deeply loved by people. Afterwards, bumper cars gradually became popular in various amusement parks, parks, and other places in China.

4. Technological improvement and diversification stage:

-With the continuous advancement of technology, bumper cars are constantly improving in terms of technology and design. For example, ground grid bumper cars have emerged, which use ground conduction electricity to drive the bumper cars to operate. Compared to sky grid bumper cars, ground grid bumper cars have faster speeds and improved safety and stability.

-The emergence of battery powered bumper cars has made the use of bumper cars more convenient, without the need for special site configurations. As long as they are fully charged, they can be used. In addition, the styles of battery powered bumper cars are becoming increasingly diverse, such as drift bumper cars, superhero bumper cars, etc., meeting the needs of different consumers.

5. Modern Innovation Stage:

-In recent years, bumper cars have continuously innovated in design and functionality. Some new types of bumper cars combine virtual reality, interactive games, and other technologies to bring players a richer experience. For example, some bumper cars are equipped with interactive screens, allowing players to engage in interactive competitions with other vehicles during the game or participate in some virtual game scenes.

Overall, the development of bumper cars from ancient prototypes to modern amusement equipment has gone through a long process, and has continuously innovated and improved in technology, design, and functionality, becoming a popular amusement project among people.
