A virtual reality ride system including a headset, a control unit, and a dynamic platform. The headset includes a display unit configured to display a video of an animated virtual environment. The control unit includes one or more processors configured to perform render processing that renders the video of the virtual environment; event motion processing that generates first data representing motions associated with events in the virtual environment; and low-frequency motion processing that generates second data representing low-frequency vibrations unrelated to the events in the virtual environment. The dynamic platform is configured to produce the motions associated with the events in the virtual environment based on the first data, and to produce the low-frequency vibrations based on the second data. The low-frequency vibrations include a frequency between about 5 Hz and 70 Hz.
