Methods for dynamic show-length variation
First Claim
1. A method for dynamic show-length variation, the method comprising:
- determining a departure of a first simulation vehicle from a starting position;
providing content to a passenger of the first simulation vehicle based on received user inputs in the first simulation vehicle, the content comprising a beginning, an end, and a plurality of scenes, wherein the content is provided while the first simulation vehicle is en route between the starting position and a termination position; and
customizing a length of the provided content so the content reaches the end as the first simulation vehicle reaches the termination position, wherein customizing the length of the provided content comprises;
determining an estimated time until arrival at the termination position;
determining a duration of the provided content until the end of the provided content;
determining a discrepancy between the estimated time until arrival at the termination position and the duration of the provided content until the end of the provided content; and
altering the provided content to minimize the determined discrepancy.

Abstract
Methods for dynamic show-length variation are disclosed herein. Such methods can include: a track extending from a starting position to a termination position; a first simulation vehicle that can move along the track from the starting position to the termination position; and a content presentation feature. Such methods can further include a processor. The processor can: determine a departure of the simulation vehicle from the starting position; provide content having a beginning, an end, and a plurality of scenes to the content presentation feature while the simulation vehicle is en route between the starting position and the termination position; and customize the length of the provided content so the content reaches the end as the simulation vehicle reaches the termination position.
