Abstract: A device for use by a user includes a power source, a compartment enclosing a prize, a transceiver powered by the power source, the transceiver configured to receive data identifying a progress by the user toward a completion of an activity, and a progress indicator powered by the power source, the progress indicator configured to display the progress by the user toward the completion of the activity, in accordance with the received data. The transceiver is further configured to receive additional data indicating the completion of the activity by the user. The device is configured to open the compartment enclosing the prize, in response to the transceiver receiving the received additional data indicating the completion of the activity by the user.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices disclosed herein relate to an improved interactive experience. The system can be for delivery of an interactive attraction experience. The system can include a passenger vehicle having a plurality of passenger locations and a content presentation system that can present a virtual portion of the attraction experience viewable from the plurality of passenger locations. The system can include a transceiver that can transmit a trigger signal and at least one processor. The at least one processor can control delivery of the virtual portion of the attraction experience via the content presentation system, detect presence of a non-ride device, and deliver a trigger signal via the transceiver to the non-ride device, the trigger signal linked with the attraction experience.

Abstract: A design for build-your-own (BYO) toys in which each build participant is provided a toy body or base part and asked to select a data key for their toy. The key has associated with it a set of build-time functions or special effects as well as post build-time functions. The toy body includes a controller that is operable to sense or detect when the key is properly installed or attached to the toy body (e.g., in a key receptacle or interface) and, in response, to read an identifier (ID) (e.g., a static code as may be provided in an RFID tag/chip). The controller may then operate onboard functional elements such as lights and a sound system to provide functions or special effects linked to that key's ID. Each key type may have different special effects associated with it for use during build time and during post build time.
