After receiving the confirmation, the identity network may receive from the identity provider, an attribute validation request to validate identity attributes of the user, where the attribute validation request includes a plurality of identity attributes of the user. The identity network may validate the digital identity of the user based on the plurality of identity attributes.

Abstract: The virtual queue system includes a virtual queue controller comprising a processor and a memory, wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the processor and is configured to receive a request, the request being associated with an individual guest, for a position in a virtual queue of an attraction, assign the individual guest to the position in the virtual queue in response to the request, receive ride schedule data for the attraction comprising information about a change in status of individual rides of the attraction, and determine a wait time for the individual guest for the attraction based at least on the position of the individual guest in the virtual queue, the ride schedule data, and historical guest throughput at the attraction. The virtual queue system is further configured to output a signal to a guest-associated device indicating the wait time for the attraction.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for stamping concrete. In one aspect, a stamp includes a flexible planar body having a bottom surface, a top surface, and a border portion, the border portion includes a plurality of recesses or tabs configured to engage with a plurality of recesses or tabs of an adjacent stamp so as to inhibit relative movement between the stamp and the adjacent stamp.
