It looks like a rollercoaster to me. Maybe one of those digital rollercoasters, where you get a "4d" experience, but actually the chairs just shake about a bit. But could as well be a regular (simple) rollercoaster, they do have that bar across their laps.

digital rollercoasters

Excuse me, what!? So you pay expensive fares and stand in line for hours to experience the same thing you can at home with an office chair with a leg missing in front of a TV???

Nah, there's never a line for those rides.

This is the dev rollercoaster, not the prod rollercoaster.

Much different, IME. Digital rides generally sit in a single room instead of a whole actual ride, but the chairs/carts more around, drop you, etc. If it's something like a nature exploration (flying around the world) they'll often increase the experience with tactile things like spray (when above an ocean) and wind. They're pretty cool
