Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If advertising spaces are integrated into the electronic gaming device interface during tournament game play, then advertising effectiveness and revenue opportunities are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines advertising display functionality with the existing electronic gaming device interface, merging promotional content delivery with tournament game play presentation. Multiple display screens are utilized to show advertisements alongside game information, player standings, and tournament details, thereby integrating revenue-generating advertising spaces without requiring separate dedicated advertising hardware.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic gaming device's display screens are designed to serve multiple functions: presenting game play information, showing tournament standings, and displaying advertising content. This multi-functionality allows the same hardware resources to generate revenue through advertising while maintaining core gaming operations, thus improving productivity without proportionally increasing device complexity.
2Ease of operation
If multiple display screens are utilized to show advertising and game information, then player engagement is enhanced, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the information presentation across multiple display screens, segmenting the user interface to show different types of content simultaneously. One or more screens display tournament game play information, player standings, and game status, while other screens or display areas show advertising content. This segmentation allows players to access game information easily while being exposed to advertising, enhancing engagement without requiring a single overly complex interface.
