Parklife Oxford Street, a temporary public space in the heart of London's West End, has been transformed into a Jurassic forest populated with twenty-four life-sized, animatronic dinosaurs. The prehistoric giants include children's favourites tyrannosaurus rex, triceratops, diplodocus and stegosaurus.
Open from 1st February, Dinosaurs Unleashed is an animatronic display replicating the largest creatures ever to roam the globe and entertaining visitors with their realistic movements and sounds. The largest dinosaur model on display is the thirty-meters-tall Diplodocus, three times the length of an English double-decker bus
At the exhibit, children can dig for dinosaur bones, design a dinosaur on a touch screen, run down an interactive track to leave dinosaur footprints, and put themselves in a virtual prehistoric aquarium using green-screen technology.
Just as impressive as the robotic dinosaurs is the imaginative setting. Reproducing the marshland, forest and prehistoric plants that formed the habitat of the dinosaurs, it take visitors sixty-five million years back in time.
Dinosaurs Unleashed is open until 30th April, 2010.
