TECHNOLOGY

Automated External Defibrillators (AED's):

All three of Morey’s Piers and both Waterparks have AED’s on site. An AED is an easy to use device that treats the most common cause of cardiac arrest. The device is capable of analyzing a patient’s heart rhythm and, if needed, delivers an electric current to the patient in an effort to reestablish normal heart activity.
The rides at Morey’s Piers employ some of the latest ride system technology. While every ride is different, various rides include the following technology to help ensure a safe experience:

	Redundant systems: Brake units, lift assemblies, and track sensors work on a redundant system ensuring that, even if a primary system fails or a system error occurs, operation will be suspended in a safe manner.

	Automated Queue Gates: Air controlled queue gates provide a barrier for guests when conditions for boarding are not acceptable.

	Computerized Diagnostic Systems: Provide needed information to Operations and Maintenance during normal operations and troubleshooting situations.

	Video Monitoring: Allows associates to watch ride vehicles and restricted areas outside of their normal sight lines during operation.

	Block Systems: sensors provide information about vehicle position to computer and relay systems, ensuring that each vehicle maintains a safe distance from others on the track.

Anti-Rollback Systems: Redundant systems to ensure that a ride vehicle, such as a coaster train, will not roll backwards on steep inclines in the event of a stop condition.

Automated Information Systems: Some of Morey’s Piers rides and attractions are fitted with specific sensors and communication devices. This technology allows for acquisition of specific operational and mechanical data. Vibrations, hydraulic and pneumatic pressures, fluid temperatures, flow rates, and fluid levels are examples of the operating parameters that our systems monitor. Not only is this data logged in real-time, but the system can alert management to unfavorable conditions before they result in an out of service condition. For example: if the temperature of the hydraulic fluid used in a specific ride system begins to rise, a computer will notify the appropriate members of management via cell phone so the situation can be assessed and, if needed, corrective action can be taken.
