And it looks like this newest patent could potentially use AI, Artificial Intelligence, to detect issues with ride systems through “listening” to the ride. Let’s dive into exactly what this means.

This patent was originally filed in March of 2026 and was officially published on September 24th, 2026. Essentially, this patent is for a new AI technology that would help to more quickly identify issues within the mechanics of Disney rides. This detection would be done through the AI “listening” for issues on the attraction.

The technology is broken down into two different systems that would act as learning models, taking bits of audio from around the attraction. One system would be responsible for filtering out any background noise or voices. The other could detect any issues or deviations from the normal sounds of the machinery and equipment of the attraction in order to point out any potential issues or problems that need to be addressed.

The goal of these new systems and technology is to detect issues earlier and be able to create less downtime and maintenance on attractions. This system is also set to be much more effective, reliable, and quicker than if there were a team dedicated to listening/looking out for issues on an attraction.

The hope is to make the theme park experience more enjoyable by having the rides open more frequently. As we know, it is very common to see several rides experiencing downtime throughout any given day at Disney, so it will be interesting to see if this patented technology will really be able to cut back on this occurrence.
