Abstract

According to one exemplary implementation, a system includes a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code. The hardware processor is configured to execute the software code to receive, from a user device, a request for a non-fungible token (NFT) based on the presence of a user of the user device in a venue, receive sensor data identifying a location of the user device, and obtain camera data from the venue, the camera data depicting at least one of the user of the user device or a field of view of the user relative to the venue. The hardware processor is further configured to execute the software code to mint the NFT, using the sensor data and the camera data, wherein the NFT depicts at least one of a portion of an object situated within the venue or an event occurring at the venue.

Background

BACKGROUND

Some venues, such as sports stadiums, theaters, concert halls, and theme parks, for example, can provide users of those venues and observers of the events that take place there with enjoyable or even momentous experiences. Moreover, those venues and events may be even more significant when they are enjoyed as part of a group experience including family, friends, or both. A conventional approach to memorializing such significant experiences includes manually taking pictures or video, for example. However, those actions may be undesirably distracting when performed as the experience is unfolding, and often undesirably fail to depict the individual taking the pictures or video. Thus, there is a need in the art for systems and methods for providing location-specific non-fungible tokens (NFT) that capture and memorialize a user's experience in a way that is specific to the perspective or preferences of the user without causing the user to lose immersion in the experience itself.

Claims

1. A system comprising: a hardware processor; and a system memory storing a software code; the hardware processor configured to execute the software code to: receive, from a user device, a request for a non-fungible token (NFT) based on a presence of a user of the user device in a venue; receive sensor data identifying a location of the user device in the venue; obtain camera data from the venue, the camera data depicting at least one of the user of the user device or a field of view of the user relative to the venue; and mint the NFT, using the sensor data and the camera data, wherein the NFT depicts at least one of a portion of an object situated within the venue or an event occurring at the venue. || 11. A method for use by a system including a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code, the method comprising: receiving, by the software code executed by the hardware processor, a request for a non-fungible token (NFT) based on a presence of a user of the user device in a venue; receiving by the software code executed by the hardware processor, sensor data identifying a location of the user device; obtaining camera data from the venue, by the software code executed by the hardware processor, the camera data depicting at least one of a user of the user device or a field of view of the user relative to the venue; and minting the NFT, by the software code executed by the hardware processor and using the sensor data and the camera data, wherein the NFT depicts at least one of a portion of an object situated within the venue or an event occurring at the venue.
