Ride/attraction show-control system for context-driven guest experience.

Abstract

Systems and methods for a customized amusement ride experience are disclosed herein. Such a system can include a simulation vehicle that can transit at least one passenger from a starting position to a terminating position of the amusement ride, a memory including a content database and a token database, and a sensor that can receive data identifying at least one token. The system can include a processor that can: receive data from the sensor identifying the at least one token; retrieve ride data from the token database based on the data identifying the at least one token, which ride data identifies an attribute associated with the token; select content for delivery based on the ride data; retrieve the selected content for delivery from the content database; and provide the selected content to the at least one passenger of the simulation vehicle.

Background

BACKGROUND (1) The present disclosure relates generally to the sound management in connection with content presentation. Sound forms a significant part of the enjoyment of content consumption. This is especially the case as relating to restricting or eliminating the perceptibility of sounds that do not originate from the content being consumed. In the case of theaters such as movie theaters, this can include attempts at soundproofing of the theater. BRIEF SUMMARY (2) One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system for customized amusement ride experience. The system includes: a simulation vehicle that can transit at least one passenger from a starting position to a terminating position of the amusement ride; a memory including a content database and a token database; a sensor that can receive data identifying at least one token; and a processor. The processor can: receive data from the sensor identifying the at least one token; retrieve ride data from the token database based on the data identifying the at least one token, which ride data identifies an attribute associated with the token; select content for delivery based on the ride data; retrieve the selected content for delivery from the content database; and provide the selected content to the at least one passenger of the simulation vehicle. (3) In some embodiments, at least one of the at least one passenger is a holder of the token. In some embodiments, the attribute associated with the token includes at least

Claims

1. A system for customized content delivery for an amusement experience, the system comprising: at least one content delivery feature configured to deliver content to at least one user as at least part of an entertainment experience; a memory comprising a content database and a token database, wherein the content comprises a plurality of storylines for a plurality of missions for the amusement experience; a sensor configured to receive data identifying at least one token, wherein the at least one token is associated with the at least one user; and a processor configured to: receive token data from the sensor identifying the at least one token; retrieve attribute data from the token database, the attribute data identifying an attribute associated with the at least one token; select content for delivery based on the retrieved attribute data, wherein selecting content for delivery based on the retrieved attribute data comprises: identifying content in the content database as not previously delivered; and when all identified content has been previously delivered, selecting content from the identified and previously provided content in the content database based on the retrieved attribute data; retrieve the selected content for delivery from the content database; and provide the selected content to the at least one user. || 12. A method for customized content delivery for an amusement experience, the method comprising: receiving with a processor data from a sensor, the data identifying at least one token, wherein the at least one token is associated with at least one user; retrieving with the processor attribute data from a token database, wherein the attribute data identifies an attribute associated with the at least one token; selecting with the processor content for delivery via at least one content delivery feature to the at least one user as at least part of an entertainment experience, wherein the content comprises a plurality of storylines for a plurality of missions for the amusement experience and is selected based on the retrieved attribute data, and wherein selecting content for delivery based on the retrieved attribute data comprises: identifying content in a content database as not previously delivered; and when all identified content has been previously delivered, selecting content from the identified and previously provided content in the content database based on the retrieved attribute data; retrieving with the processor the selected content for delivery from the content database; and providing the selected content to the at least one user.
