In an embodiment, an interactive wearable device system includes a display configured to face outwardly from a wearer of the interactive wearable device system. The interactive wearable device system also includes a location identification system configured to determine user location data related to the wearer and a separate individual. An automation controller is communicatively coupled to the display and the location identification system. The automation controller is configured to receive the user location data provided by the location identification system. The automation controller is also configured to determine the user location data satisfies at least one criteria and instruct the display to display an image based on the location data satisfying the at least one criteria.

Interactive wearable devices and facial coverings

An interactive token system includes one or more interactive tokens, such as an interactive coin. The interactive token includes a display that displays one or more images. The interactive token may be releasably engaged with a slot disposed on a wearable device or an interactive token station. Once engaged, the wearable device or interactive token station is able to wirelessly communicate with the interactive token, receive information from the interactive token, display information relating to the interactive token, control actions of the interactive token, and/or use the interactive token as part of a game or trading interaction.

Interactive token system

A show effect system may include a plasma tube configured to generate an electric arc within the plasma tube and a light strip extending along the plasma tube. The light strip may include a plurality of light emitters configured to output light through the plasma tube and backlight the electric arc generated by the plasma tube.

Systems and methods for providing a show effect for an attraction system

Headgear includes one or more sensors that provide input information to a controller of the headgear. The sensors may include accelerometers, location sensors, wireless receivers, cameras, and so on. The controller may receive the input information that is indicative of an orientation of the headgear, a location of the headgear, a communication signal, and/or an image or video. The headgear may also include one or more output devices that may be controlled by the controller (e.g., actuators, electronic displays, lights, speakers, and/or communication interfaces). As such, the headgear may output instructions to actuate an actuator, display an image on an electronic display, activate a light, emit a sound using a speaker, and/or send a communication signal using a communication interface. In particular, the headgear may determine an instruction to send to an output device in response to receiving the input information, and send the instruction to the output device.

Interactive headgear

A restraint system for a ride vehicle includes a rigid restraint configured to extend across a passenger to secure the passenger within a seat of the ride vehicle and a soft restraint coupled to the rigid restraint. The soft restraint includes a pliable material configured to conform to a substantial portion of a torso of the passenger and a haptic feedback system integrated with the soft restraint. The haptic feedback system is configured to generate vibrational forces and impart the vibrational forces to the torso of the passenger.

Ride vehicle restraint system

An amusement park ride system including a ride vehicle, a ride control system that may track a location of the ride vehicle on a ride path and a haptic feedback system having a screen having a surface modifying component. The surface modifying component may be positioned on the ride vehicle. The haptic feedback system also includes a control system having a memory and a processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, may cause the haptic feedback system to convert data from the ride control system into tactile information representative of scenery surrounding the ride vehicle based on stored scenery data that is correlated to the location.

Haptic feedback systems and methods for an amusement park ride

An amusement ride system includes a ride area, a ride vehicle configured to move within the ride area, a transparent display positioned between the ride area and a viewing area and configured to enable viewing of the ride vehicle from the viewing area, and a controller having a memory and a processor. The processor is configured to receive a sensor signal indicative of a position of the ride vehicle within the ride area and control an augmented reality image on the transparent display based on the position of the ride vehicle.
