Slot Machine Interface Board Biometric User Identification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic gaming machines lack effective mechanisms for identifying users and enforcing anti-money laundering and responsible gaming restrictions independently of live streaming content.
Innovation Solution
A slot machine interface board equipped with a processor and memory, capable of capturing biometric data from users and communicating it to a security system, which determines if the user has exceeded cash buy-in limits or is restricted, prompting modifications to the gaming machine's operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If biometric data capture and security system integration are implemented, then user identification accuracy and anti-money laundering capability are improved, but device complexity and manufacturing cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The image capture device serves dual purposes: capturing images for live streaming content and capturing biometric data for user identification and security checks. The processor handles both streaming operations and biometric verification, reducing the need for separate dedicated components and thereby managing complexity while achieving multi-functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
A security system component acts as an intermediary between the gaming machine and the centralized database of restricted individuals. This intermediary receives biometric data, performs matching against stored data, and returns determination results, allowing the gaming machine to enforce restrictions without maintaining large local databases, thus managing system complexity.
2Reliability
If automatic user identification and restriction enforcement are implemented, then anti-money laundering effectiveness is improved, but operational complexity and implementation difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary biometric data capture at the moment of play, before any wagering occurs. This preliminary identification establishes the user's identity and restriction status in advance, allowing the gaming machine to automatically enforce restrictions without requiring complex real-time intervention or manual verification processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The gaming machine autonomously performs user identification, compares data against restriction lists, and enforces limits without requiring manual intervention from casino personnel. The system self-manages the anti-money laundering compliance process, reducing operational complexity while maintaining effectiveness.
