Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses disclosed herein can generate vibrations in relation to, for example, synchronous with, audio that is associated with an event being hosted at a venue. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can generate the vibrations at the one or more frequencies over the one or more intervals in time to provide physical sensations to an audience within the venue as the audience is viewing the event. These physical sensations can provide new immersive experiences to the audience as the audience is viewing the event. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can be mechanically coupled, for example, attached, to seats within the venue. The vibrations generated by these systems, methods, and apparatuses can propagate through the seats onto the audience to provide the new immersive experiences to the audience as the audience is viewing the event. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can be attached to the seats at the start of the event and can thereafter be de-attached, or removed, from the seats at the conclusion of the event.
