Approach

From sketch to opening day

Phase 01

Concept

Translate the creative story into system requirements, budget and risk.

Phase 02

Design

Develop the system design and produce documents integrators can build from with confidence.

Phase 03

Integration

Oversee vendors, test in the shop, and catch problems before they ship.

Phase 04

Opening

Provide technical direction on site, coordinating trades and vendors through installation, commissioning and opening day.

About

Technically led, show-focused

Wolber Technical Systems is a design and technical services firm for themed entertainment, covering AVL, show control, electrical and industrial controls. It was founded by David Wolber, who holds a BS in electrical engineering and has spent a decade designing, integrating and delivering ride and show systems for the world's leading theme park operators.

David has led controls and AVL design teams at several of the industry's leading attraction design and integration firms, most recently as head of an AVL design department. His work spans technical direction, system architecture, hazard analysis and third-party safety reviews, vendor oversight, and the technical standards that keep multi-discipline teams aligned. He has delivered projects on site across the United States and Asia.

The work sits where creative intent meets infrastructure: making sure what the designers imagined is what the guests experience, every show, every day.
