Thesis: In the film, "Big Hero 6" by Walt Disney Animation Studio, the story takes place in a fictional, San Fransokyo, which is grounded in reality, and uses real/current technology/science in the creation of the character's "suits".
1. Baymax's "inflatable vinyl"
- Research and development (built the actual robot in order to understand how it moved)
- How it was portrayed (very close to the research, pushed during moments of crisis)
- Why it's significant to the film (Baymax needed look and feel cuddly/inviting yet be able to withstand lots of pressure)
2. Go Go " "magnetic levitation"
- Research and development (currently used in many motorized vehicles, inspire hoverboard technology)
- How it was portrayed (pushed in it's abilities, used to help Go Go move around, and move around FAST!)
3. Wasabi "laser induced plasma"
- Research and development (similar to taser gun technology, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tJF3qBWyUk)
- How it was portrayed (sward similar to a light saber)
In conclusion,
The film features very real and current technology, inspiring the concept "if you can dream it, you can do it" - Walt Disney/Hiro
