AR Headset Item Recognition for Contextual Gaming Offers
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing gaming environments lack integration of real and virtual elements to enhance user engagement and participation, particularly in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) casino settings.
Innovation Solution
A system and method that utilizes a head-mounted display device to identify items in a user's field of view, determine their monetary value, and present associated gaming offers, leveraging a financial opportunity server to provide various gaming and financial opportunities based on item identification.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If AR/VR technology is used to display gaming offers, then user engagement and participation are enhanced, but the system complexity increases due to integration of real and virtual elements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines real-world physical items with virtual gaming offers by using AR/VR technology to overlay digital content onto the physical environment. The system merges the real casino floor with virtual gaming opportunities, allowing users to interact with both physical and digital elements simultaneously through head-mounted displays.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces cameras, processors, and display systems as intermediary components between the user and the gaming offers. These intermediaries capture real-world items, process them through AI/ML models to identify and match with appropriate gaming offers, and present the combined reality through AR/VR interfaces.
2Productivity
If personalized gaming offers are provided based on identified items, then user participation increases, but information processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-processes and stores information about various items in the casino environment (games, tables, amenities) in databases before users arrive. When users point devices at items, the system quickly retrieves pre-analyzed data and matches it with appropriate gaming offers, reducing real-time processing requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously monitors user interactions with displayed offers and adjusts future offer presentations based on user behavior patterns. This feedback loop allows the system to learn user preferences and refine information processing by focusing on relevant items and offers rather than processing all possible combinations.
3Productivity
If real-world items are linked with virtual financial offers, then gaming experience is enhanced, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring appropriate offers increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system transforms physical items into measurable digital parameters by capturing images with cameras, converting them into data that can be analyzed by AI/ML models. These models evaluate multiple parameters including item type, user preferences, location, and gaming history to determine the optimal virtual offer matching, converting qualitative physical attributes into quantifiable data points.
Data Source
AI summary
A system includes a processor circuit and a memory including machine-readable instructions. When executed by the processor circuit, the instructions cause the processor circuit to identify an item in a field of view of a user wearing a head-mounted display device. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to determine a monetary value associated with the item. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to determine a gaming offer associated with the monetary value. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to cause the head-mounted display device to display the gaming offer, wherein the gaming offer is associated with the item in the field of view of the user.
