Scream if you want to... charge your phone.

如果你想给手机充电，那就尖叫吧。

Thanks to the wonders of science, riders on Thorpe Park's new attraction, The Walking Dead, can now power their smartphones by screaming loudly. That's because there are devices on it that 'harvest kinetic¹ energy'.

感谢神奇的科学，英国索普游乐园新建景点“行尸走肉”过山车的玩家们可以通过大声尖叫给手机充电了。这是因为过山车里安装了可以“收集动能”的设备。

The Surrey theme park conducted research that showed that millennials' biggest fear is their phones running out of battery, so the device should prove popular.

这座位于萨里的主题公园进行的一项研究显示，千禧一代最害怕的就是手机快没电了，因此该设备应该非常受欢迎。

All of the Walking Dead's carriages have been fitted with the harvesting devices, which not only suck up the energy of screams, but that from g-force and vibrations², too.

“行尸走肉”过山车的所有车厢都安装了收集装置，它不仅能吸收尖叫的能量，还能吸收失重和振动的能量。

The units are then removed from the carriages by staff and deposited into an on-site mobile charging point.

然后由工作人员将设备从车厢中取出，就地存入手机充电点。

Thorpe Park said: 'If thrill-seekers are brave enough to open their eyes, they will see a set of LED lights in blood red powering up as guests' screams become louder... throughout the spine-tingling 90-second experience.'

索普游乐园称：“在这90秒的恐怖体验中，如果寻求刺激的人有勇气睁开双眼，就会看到当他们的尖叫声变大时，一组鲜红色的LED灯将接通电源。”

The 188mm x 188mm x 67mm device is jet black, 'blending into its dark and mysterious surroundings on the roller coaster themed around the global TV phenomenon³'.

这款18.8厘米×18.8厘米×6.7厘米的黑色装置“融入到黑暗而神秘的'行尸走肉'主题过山车中。”

Designed and installed by researchers at Queen Mary University London and the engineering team at Thorpe Park Resort, the technology took three months to implement⁴, from design to installation.

该设备由伦敦玛丽女王大学的研究人员以及索普游乐园的工程师团队设计并安装，历时三个月实现这项技术。

It will be available at the theme park for an initial trial period. If this proves successful, the technology may become a permanent fixture⁵ for the remainder of the 2018 season.

索普游乐园将先进行初步测试。如果测试成功，可能在2018年内将其改为永久装置。
