Abstract: An attraction system includes a first component, a second component, a fastener configured to couple the first component to the second component, a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag including a torque stripe extending between the fastener and a reference point of the attraction system, wherein the RFID tag is configured to emit a radio frequency (RF) signal in response to the torque stripe being unbroken, and an RFID reader configured to detect the RF signal.

Abstract: An interactive system includes a device configured to output a signal toward a surface such that the signal reflects off the surface at an angle and along a path of travel, and such that an object that interrupts the path of travel of the signal causes a return signal to travel in a reverse direction along the path of travel for receipt by the device. The interactive system also includes a control system communicatively coupled to the device. The control system is configured to receive data from the device, in which the data is associated with the receipt of the return signal by the device, and determine a position of the object relative to the device based on the data.

In addition, the attraction system comprises a control assembly configured to control the support vehicle to traverse the track via the wheel assembly and receive, from the sensor, sensor data indicative of the characteristic of the attraction system.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle locker comprises a controller including a memory storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions. The instructions are configured to cause the controller to associate an autonomous vehicle locker with a guest at a first location, receive an indication that guest items are within a storage compartment, secure the storage compartment based on the indication, instruct the autonomous vehicle locker to travel to a second location, identify the guest from a plurality of guests at the second location, and instruct the autonomous vehicle locker to unlock the storage compartment in response to identifying the guest.

Abstract: An interactive system includes one or more processors and memory storing instructions executable by the one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to identify one or more non-fungible tokens (NFTs) possessed by a user and to provide control signals to one or more output devices of a portable object based on the one or more NFTs. The one or more output devices include an actuator configured to drive movement of at least a portion of the portable object, a speaker configured to output sounds, a light emitter configured to emit light, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: An interactive system for an amusement park attraction includes one or more processors configured to identify a non-fungible token (NFT) possessed by a user within the amusement park attraction. The one or more processors are also configured to transform the NFT into a derivative of the NFT based on context data for the amusement park attraction. The one or more processors are further configured to instruct display of the derivative of the NFT on a display screen within the amusement park attraction.

Abstract: A three-dimensional display system includes a first display and a second display spaced apart from the first display having one or more light sources configured to emit light and to illuminate the first display, where the first display is at least partially transparent such that the second display is visible through the first display. The three-dimensional display system includes a special effect system disposed at least in part between the first display and the second display and is configured to be activated to cause a special effect to be visible through the first display. The three-dimensional display system includes a controller communicatively coupled to the first display, the second display, and the special effect system.

Abstract: A monitoring system includes a video assembly comprising at least one camera positioned in a predetermined area and configured to transmit a real-time video feed of a physical location in the predetermined area. The monitoring system further includes a control system configured to receive the real-time video feed from the at least one camera. The control system includes a memory device and a processor configured to generate a virtual model of a predetermined area based on instructions stored on the memory device, wherein the processor is configured to incorporate the real-time video feed into the virtual model at a virtual location in the virtual model corresponding to the physical location in the predetermined area. The control system also includes a display unit configured to display the virtual model.

Abstract: Systems and methods may increase facial recognition throughput by reducing search data as a person traverses through a theme park. Systems and methods include storing facial identification data in a theme park database as guests enter a theme park and removing facial identification data in the theme park database as guests exit the theme park. In this manner, the theme park database includes facial identification data of guests inside the theme park, and not of guests who have left the theme park, thereby reducing the size of the theme park database as guests exit the theme park. Similarly, this approach may be implemented within each of the various areas of the theme park, such that the size of databases associated with each area of the park only includes entries corresponding to guests in the particular park area.
