A guest engagement system and associated methods provide seamless engagement with guests of facilities through the use of wireless sensing technologies. The system makes use of individual guest devices which are carried by guests and used to automatically identify and authenticate the guests throughout the facility. Services can thereby be seamlessly provided to the guests throughout the facility. The services include automatic unlocking of doors, including hotel or state room doors, based on the guests' immediate proximity to their assigned room's door. The services also include automated payment services provided at checkout or vending terminals, and automated log-on to interactive displays and portals, among others, based on secure wireless authentication of the guest devices. Antenna devices and methods for making and using the same are disclosed. An exemplary antenna device can include first and second wireless communication antennas configured to operate using first and second communication standards, respectively.

Devices and accessories for use in wireless guest engagement systems

Subject matter disclosed herein may relate to monitoring state information for one or more events across one or more platforms associated with a user account, and providing event information appropriate for an electronic device to a the electronic device for display to a user associated with the user account. The user may provide inputs related to one or more of the events via the electronic device, and the inputs may be transmitted to one or more platforms.

Event state monitoring for multiple platforms associated with a user account

A system for providing an interactive experience for multiple game-players. The experience is provided in a light-controlled setting where the game-players may wear or hold one or more of various toys (e.g., gloves). The system detects and recognizes the toy along with gestures and pointing efforts performed by the game-player and the system generates an effect based on the type of toy and the type of gesture. The system also generates one or more visual targets that are visible to the game-player such as projections, holograms, and displays of one or more of various fantasy virtual adversaries. The generated effects may include any combination of sensory effects including visual, audio, tactile, and smell/taste. The generated effect may be directed based on the pointing efforts of the game-player. The system may then register the effect on the target, if the pointing efforts intersect with the virtual location of the target.
