Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems for remote participation in casino games lack efficient mechanisms for secondary players to engage with primary players' games across different locations, and there is a need for secure and transparent tracking of bets and winnings, as well as ensuring fairness and regulatory compliance.

Innovation Solution

A system that allows secondary players to participate in primary players' games through a network, with a casino server managing data transmission and recreation of games, while ensuring encryption and secure communication to maintain fairness and regulatory oversight.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If secondary players are allowed to remotely participate in primary players' games across different locations, then player engagement and market reach are improved, but system complexity and security requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveremote participation capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

A casino server acts as an intermediary between primary players and secondary players, managing game data transmission and recreation. The server receives game data from primary players' gaming devices, processes it, and transmits recreated game data to secondary players' devices, enabling remote participation while centralizing security and complexity management

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates digital copies of game data and game states to enable secondary players to participate remotely. Game data including outcomes, bets, and player information is copied and transmitted across the network, allowing multiple players to engage with the same game instance without physical presence

Inventive Principle:

Principle #26Copying

2Reliability

If secure encryption and data management are implemented for remote game participation, then fairness and regulatory compliance are improved, but processing time and system overhead increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvefairness and complianceVSAvoidprocessing time

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

Player tracking cards are pre-loaded with encoded player information and credentials. This preliminary encoding allows for rapid authentication and data retrieval during gameplay, reducing processing time while maintaining security and compliance requirements

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action
