In Japan, Sony Business Solutions is the distributor of this system and provides installation, maintenance, and program production services. The seats in the auditorium move back and forth, left and right, and up and down according to the movie scene, and there are special effects that stimulate the five senses, such as wind, mist, strobe, smoke, and vibration, which work together to create an "attraction-type movie-viewing style" that cannot be experienced in a regular theater.
