A “dual” gaming unit or machine is configured to implement both one or more traditional casino-style wagering games, such as games having outcomes determined primarily by chance and not skill, and one or more games which are traditionally not casino style games, such as amusement-type games or games having amusement-type game components, such as games where the outcome is determined substantially by skill. The wagering game portion of the gaming machine may award monetary awards to the player for winning wagering game outcomes, and the amusement portion of the gaming machine may be used to award promotional prizes to the player. A player rewards system may include such dual gaming units or other award dispensing mechanisms.

The present invention relates to a win method for use in an amusement game, and an amusement game that utilizes the win method. In each play or attempt of the game the player has the choice of trying for a major prize or vending a minor prize. If they opt for the minor prize, the minor prize is vended and the game ends. If they opt for the major prize, the game continues. If they win the major prize, a major prize is vended and the game ends. If they do not win the major prize and it is not the last attempt, the game continues. They have the option of trying for the major prize again or opting for the minor prize. On the last attempt, if the player opts for a major prize and loses, they do not win any prize and the game ends.

A device that is capable of being in three states: (1) a first stable state, (2) a second stable state, wherein said device teeters back and forth when hit by a force, and (3) and a third stable state, wherein said device will topple completely over when hit too hard by a force. The device comprises a target piece and a base. The base is configured to lay flat on a surface and contains a curved section, a ledge, and a ledge perimeter. The target piece may contain a top piece attached on the opposite side which the base is attached, which may contain a hollow cavity, a shot glass holder cavity, or take the shape of a target for use in target practice.

The invention relates to a design method of a visual tracking interface on a 3G (The 3rd Generation Telecommunication) mobile terminal, which is the application of a machine vision technology on 3G mobile terminals. The interaction of motions and postures of human limbs with a 3G mobile phone is natural, but a vision algorithm on a traditional PC (Personal Computer) platform has large calculation cost and cannot obtain real-time interaction effects in the application of the mobile terminals. In the method, a TMS3 20DM6467 chip based on dicaryon is adopted to share the cost of a visual motion tracking and identifying algorithm, which obtains interactive real time on a mobile platform. An image sequence of limb motions is acquired by utilizing equipment such as a camera, and the like on the mobile platform on the basis of a visual user limb motion tracking interactive technology, static or dynamic limb characteristics are extracted and limb gestures or actions are identified through a visual algorithm so as to figure out the intention of a user and realize the man-machine interaction. The method has wide application prospect in the fields of intelligent interaction, recreational games, wearable computing, and the like of 3G mobile terminals.

The invention relates to a machine (1) for pinball-type recreational games, characterised in that it comprises a module for the monitoring and storage (2) of operative variables of the machine (1), comprising means for communication with remote storage and control equipment (9), where said monitoring and storage module (2) also comprises the following elements: at least one CPU (4) connected to a plurality of sensor elements; at least one data-receiving and data-encoding device (3) connected to said CPU (4); at least one multimedia support unit (5); at least one electronic purse (6); and an electromechanical counting device (7) for counting the number and amplitude of the electric pulses received from said electronic purse (6).

The invention belongs to the field of game machines and relates to a home internet entertainment game machine based on a wireless charging system. The game machine comprises a body, a base connected with the heating end of the body, a heat dissipation part and a wireless charging seat; the heat dissipation part comprises a plurality of heat dissipation plates arranged on the base; each heat dissipation plate comprises a main body part and a bent part; cooling fins are arranged on the side walls of the heat dissipation plates; protrusions are arranged on the sides, away from the base, of the heat dissipation plates; a cavity is formed in each heat dissipation plate and is filled with a cooling liquid; the end portions of the cavities are connected with circulating pipelines; the circulatingpipelines are provided with micro water pumps. According to the entertainment game of the invention, the heat dissipation plates are arranged on the side, close to the wireless charging seat, of thebase; the multiple heat dissipation plates are sequentially arranged in an attached mode; and therefore, contact area between the heat dissipation plates and air is increased in a limited region, andthe heat dissipation effect of the heat dissipation plates is improved.

The invention consists of eliminating the inner central shaft of the drum in order to allow a more homogenous mixing of the balls such that the chances of the balls being winning balls are not dependent on the position that they may occupy before the drum is rotated. To that end, the ball mixing blades (9) are integrally attached to the inner face of the structure of the drum. Not only does this structure allow mixing the balls better, but it also simplifies maintenance work on the device, in that it includes respective outer shafts (3) that are easily accessible without having to disassemble the drum in the event that the pin that links it with the mechanism for driving the rotation of the drum breaks.

An entertainment gaming system and method for transforming a non-random number outcome into an entertainment gaming outcome. The entertainment gaming system comprises a central server, non-random number outcome generator machine, entertainment gaming machine, and database. The central server communicatively coupled with non-random number outcome generator machine and entertainment gaming machine. The entertainment gaming system collects non-random number based outcome from real-world events and transmitting it to the central server. The central server further utilizes an algorithm to process the received non-random number outcome into an entertainment gaming outcome. Further, the present entertainment gaming system comprises a database to store the received real-world non-random number based outcome and processed entertainment gaming outcome generated from the received non-random number based outcome. The central server then transmits the processed outcome in the form of an entertainment gaming outcome to the entertainment gaming machine to generate and render a game result.

A method for transmitting an amusement game session between client units in a server-based amusement game system includes a server unit and at least two client units. Here, connections between the server unit and the at least two client units are set up via a communication network. The identification (ID1) of the first client unit is entered into the second client unit. A communication connection to the server unit is established from the second client unit, whereas an identification of the second client unit is sent to the server unit and stored together with the user-specific data. The amusement game session is displayed on the second client unit and the identification of the first client unit is deleted from the user-specific data. The amusement game session can then be seamlessly continued on the second client unit (C22) at the same status.
