A sanitization system for an amusement park includes a sanitization station disposed along a ride path of a ride of the amusement park. The sanitization station includes a housing configured to receive a ride vehicle as the ride vehicle travels along the ride path, an ultraviolet light source configured to transmit ultraviolet light toward a surface of the ride vehicle, and a control system configured to detect a position of the ride vehicle along the ride path and to activate the ultraviolet light source when the control system determines that the ride vehicle is positioned at a first particular position relative to the housing.

Systems and methods for sanitizing amusement park equipment

Present systems and methods are directed to a ride system that includes a personal electronic device (PED) holding system for a ride vehicle. The PED holding system includes a lock that is configured to move from an unlocked configuration to a locked configuration to lock a PED of a passenger of the ride vehicle to the ride vehicle during a ride cycle. The PED holding system also includes a charging system that is configured to charge an energy storage component of the PED during the ride cycle.

Systems and methods to hold and charge a personal electronic device on a ride vehicle

A sanitization system for an amusement park includes a compartment disposed in a ride vehicle of an amusement park ride, where the compartment is configured to receive an article of the amusement park ride, an ultraviolet light source disposed in the compartment, where the ultraviolet light source is configured to transmit ultraviolet light toward a surface of the article when the article is positioned in the compartment, and a nozzle disposed in the compartment, wherein the nozzle is configured to direct a sanitizing fluid toward the surface of the article when the article is positioned in the compartment.

Systems and methods for sanitizing amusement park articles

A system includes a portable locker including a container that may receive and store items and a first lock coupled to the container and that may lock the container to block access to the stored items. The first lock includes a detector that may receive a wireless signal, and receiving the wireless signal causes the first lock to lock or unlock. The system also includes a restraint coupled to the container and includes a second lock. The second lock may secure the portable locker to a rider of an amusement park ride.
