UNLOCKING OF DIGITAL CONTENT BASED ON GEO-LOCATION OF OBJECTS
First Claim
1. A system configured to unlock digital content related to toys associated with users, the digital content being unlocked based on the associations between the toys and the users, and presence of objects associated with user accounts at predetermined geographic locations within a theme park, the system comprising:
- one or more sensors configured to generate output signals conveying information related to presence of the objects in the predetermined geographic locations, the predetermined geographic locations including a first predetermined geographic location; and
one or more processors configured to execute computer program modules, the computer program modules comprising;
a user module configured to maintain the user accounts, the user accounts being associated with individual users, the user accounts including information related to the toys associated with users and the objects associated with the user accounts, the user accounts including a first user account associated with a first user, the first user account including information related to a first toy associated with the first user and a first object associated with the first user account;
a location module configured to detect whether the objects are in the predetermined geographic locations based on the output signals, the location module configured to detect whether the first object is in the first predetermined geographic location; and
an unlock module configured to unlock the digital content related to the toys associated with the users responsive to detection of the objects in the predetermined geographic locations such that, responsive to a first detection indicating that the first object has been detected in the first predetermined geographic location, first digital content associated with the first toy is unlocked to reflect the first detection.
