This disclosure relates to systems and methods for simulating an internet of things capability in an object. Storage media may store reactions executable by a wireless communication device. The wireless communication device may include one or more sensors and one or more feedback capabilities. Individual reactions may be characterized by reaction criteria detectable by the one or more sensors and reaction effects executable through the one or more feedback capabilities. One or more processors may be configured by machine readable instructions to receive input indicating an object association between the wireless communication device and the object, and, responsive to reception of the input, activate a set of reactions for the wireless communication device.
