Great Wolf Lodge Using RTLS RFID Wristbands

Great Wolf Lodge in Niagara Falls, Canada, is using MICROS Systems' property-wide RFID-enabled hospitality management system. This allows guests to traverse the 100,000+ square foot water complex wearing waterproof RFID wristbands.

POS (Point-of-Sales) stations all over the complex allow guests to make contactless payment with the wristbands. [via PR Newswire] This is similar to SafeTzone's RTLS wristband for kids at theme parks, but does not track wristband wearers per se.

I guess this is an ideal environment for such wristbands, not just because it's an outdoor theme park, but because it's a water park. If you're spending most of your time in shorts or swimming gear, it's hard keeping your money dry.
