"... concepts ranging from keyless hotel-room doors to rides and shows in which the experience varies based on an individual guest’s preferences."
"... key part involves the development of radio-frequency identification microchips that could be implanted into park passes or wrist bands."
"... contact-information chips that pet owners have implanted in their dogs and cats to the bracelets that hospitals use to track patients and their treatments."
APs will be given the option of having a RFID chip implanted in their skin. This will eliminate AP passes hanging from lanyards that are waved in CMs faces to announce the exhalted AP's presence. Unfortunately, the new RFID system will set off flashing lights and a siren every time a AP approaches a cash register or entrance to an attraction.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

maybe they could figure out a way to cross connect the RFID to the circulatory system, so that a small transmitter held by all CM's could render them unconscious at the touch of a button?
you could call it "added value" mini-naps feature!!

When they implant the chip, will they also get a "666" tattooed over it? I always suspected AP's would be the first in line to get the mark of the beast... :D:hobie16 wrote:APs will be given the option of having a RFID chip implanted in their skin.

Re: 1.5 billion for next generation tech at WDW!
I'm surprised that you guys didn't say that guests who give the CMs any grief, either by using their AP status to lord it over CMs, or guests who transform into SGs, would have a chip put into them so when they begin to act up, the CM can press a button, signaling a trapdoor under the SG to open, which would simultaneously send them down a chute to the outside of the park and deactivate their chip, so they can't get back in. I know, awkward sentence structure, but what the hey....
Or, the CM could press a button and zap the SG into compliance with park rules. Or summon security and drag them out of there, exchanging their entrance chip for a banned for life chip. Something like that.
Anybody else wanna have fun with this idea? :twisted:

Please, I would love to. Especially since I'm moving to Attractions next month so that would be put to very good use.felinefan wrote:I'm surprised that you guys didn't say that guests who give the CMs any grief, either by using their AP status to lord it over CMs, or guests who transform into SGs, would have a chip put into them so when they begin to act up, the CM can press a button, signaling a trapdoor under the SG to open, which would simultaneously send them down a chute to the outside of the park and deactivate their chip, so they can't get back in.

The tag will also be linked to Photopass - candid photos of guests at in-opportune moments, such as scarfing down that turkey leg, or starring at the Fairies
. And tag readers in each seat of each attraction, ensuring that you get instant access to your souvenir photo from "Flash" Mountain - and assisting security in escorting said twits out the front gate.
In fact, on rides like Splash the ride ops could know for certain which moron it was who tripped a security sensor and shut down the ride. He could then be denied access to that attraction fro the duration of his ticket, if not evicted from the park.
Imagine the voiceover "Sorry for the delay folks, looks like "Mikey Smith, from Ohio" is causing some kind of disturbance up ahead. Brear Cop will be waiting to speak with him later"
