Highlights of the new Museum include: Fantastic New Cinema Within the walls of the new Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum is a remarkable cinema. The Cinema features a 200° screen that immerses the viewer into the world of The Championships by showing a film about the science of tennis. Filming took place during the 2005 Championships on Centre Court of Russia's Maria Sharapova against Spain's Nuria Llagostera Vives. Graham English Productions used a special panoramic rig that used 5 cameras at the same time, the result of which is a film that can be frozen and rotated around the field of action at any time. Using this technique, the film focuses on 20 different aspects of the match and showed viewers how players' bodies and equipment are affected during the course of a professional tennis match. McEnroe's Ghost Sighted at the New Museum Bringing together an old technique called 'Pepper's Ghost' with new projection and filming technology, the museum is able to create an exciting way to view a scene from Wimbledon's past. In a recreation of the 1980s Gentlemen's Dressing Room, a ghost-like image of John McEnroe appears and takes you through a tour of the normally off-limits area. McEnroe reminisces about his memories about the Dressing Room, including how he first met Jimmy Connors and how he would emotionally prepare himself for matches. The Whites of Wimbledon The fashions of Wimbledon continue to be a point of attention and significance to the story of tennis and the new Museum will house an extensive collection of Wimbledon attire. Everything from outfits worn in the 1880s to Rafeal Nadal's dri-fit 'pirate' trousers are on display. There is also an interactive exhibit where you can feel the weight difference between male and female clothing in 1884. Extraordinary New Technology Interactive touch screen consoles are evenly distributed throughout the Museum hallways. These information access points make up a part of the new and exiting technologies within the Museum. Other features are the 'Get a Grip' rotating wheel of rackets; 'The Reactor' game and an archive of great past Championship matches, all of which can be enjoyed by visitors of any age.
Las visitas al museo y al tour suelen durar alrededor de dos horas y media, concretamente 90 minutos para el tour y una hora para el museo. Aspectos destacados del nuevo Museo: Fantástico Nuevo Cine Dentro de las paredes del nuevo Museo Wimbledon Lawn Tennis hay un cine destacable. El cine cuenta con una pantalla de 200° que sumerge al espectador en el mundo de los torneos, mostrando una película sobre la ciencia del tenis. El rodaje tuvo lugar en la pista central durante el torneo de 2005, concretamente en el enfrentamiento entre la rusa Maria Sharapova y la española Nuria Llagostera. Graham English Productions utilizó una plataforma panorámica especial que utiliza 5 cámaras al mismo tiempo, el resultado de la cual es una película que puede ser congelada y se hace girar alrededor del campo de acción en cualquier momento. Usando esta técnica, la película se centra en 20 aspectos diferentes del partido y muestra a los televidentes cómo los órganos y el equipamiento de los jugadores se ven afectados durante el transcurso de un partido de tenis profesional. El fantasma de McEnroe fue visto en el Nuevo Museo Al juntar una vieja técnica denominada 'El Fantasma de Pepper' con la nueva tecnología de proyección y de filmación, el museo es capaz de crear una emocionante manera de ver una escena del pasado de Wimbledon. En una recreación del vestidor de caballeros en la década de 1980, un holograma de John McEnroe aparece y le lleva a través de un recorrido por la zona más allá de los límites. McEnroe rememora viejos recuerdos sobre el vestuario, incluyendo la manera en que conoció a Jimmy Connors y cómo se preparaba psicológicamente a sí mismo para los partidos. Las Ropas de Wimbledon Las modas de Wimbledon siguen siendo un punto de atención e importancia en la historia del tenis y el nuevo Museo de Wimbledon albergará una amplia colección de atuendos. Podrá ver de todo, desde la ropa usada en la década de 1880 hasta los pantalones Dri-Fit 'piratas' de Rafael Nadal. También hay una exposición interactiva donde podrá notar la diferencia de peso entre la ropa masculina y femenina de 1884. Nueva Tecnología Extraordinaria Consolas interactivas con pantalla táctil están distribuidas a lo largo de los pasillos del museo. Estos puntos de acceso a la información forman parte de las nuevas y excitantes tecnologías que encontrará en el Museo. Otros equipamientos son la rueda de raquetas rotativa "Get a Grip"; el juego 'El Reactor' y un archivo de los grandes partidos en torneos pasados, todos lo cuales podrán ser disfrutados por los visitantes de cualquier edad. Tour Los visitantes también podrán disfrutar de un tour por los terrenos de juego, dirigido por los guías especialmente entrenados de Blue Badge, y tendrá acceso a las áreas restringidas que normalmente están cerradas al público. Se incluye: • Pista nº 1 • Los jardines (Henman Hill) • El Millennium Building • La sala de prensa • El estudio de televisión de la BBC (o la pista central, si los trabajos de construcción lo permiten) • Entrada al museo Horarios de visita: Varían al largo del año.
