Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional gaming systems offer a one-size-fits-all approach to wagering options, failing to accommodate the varying wagering habits and risk tolerances of different players, leading to an inconsistent gaming experience for remote players participating in physical gaming table games.

Innovation Solution

A gaming system that allows for customizable wagering options by analyzing player data and characteristics, enabling remote players to access different wagering configurations and game features based on their individual profiles, while maintaining static parameters for physical players at the table.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a one-size-fits-all wagering approach is used for all players at a physical gaming table, then the system is simple to operate and maintain, but it fails to accommodate varying wagering habits and risk tolerances of different players

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccommodation of varying wagering habits and risk tolerancesVSAvoidsystem complexity for managing player-specific parameters
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the gaming experience by creating separate parameter sets for different players. Each player has their own profile with customized wagering limits, game features, and risk parameters that are independently managed. This allows the system to accommodate varying wagering habits without requiring a complete system overhaul.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by allowing different portions of the gaming system to have different parameters tailored to specific players. Instead of uniform system-wide settings, each player interacts with customized local parameters including wagering limits, game features, and risk thresholds that match their individual preferences and risk tolerance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Ease of operation

If player-specific virtual gaming tables with customized parameters are implemented, then personalized gaming experience is improved, but the device complexity and data management requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalized gaming experienceVSAvoidvirtual gaming table configuration and data management
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system creates virtual copies of gaming tables with customized parameters for each player. Instead of modifying the physical table itself, the system generates digital replicas that mirror the physical table's functionality while incorporating player-specific adaptations. This allows personalized experiences without physically altering the base gaming infrastructure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring player profiles with customized parameters before the player begins gaming. Wagering limits, risk thresholds, and preferred game features are established in advance based on player characteristics and preferences, eliminating the need for real-time adjustments during gameplay.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If remote players are given access to physical gaming tables with customized parameters, then player engagement is enhanced, but the system requires more sophisticated data processing and communication infrastructure

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveplayer engagement and participationVSAvoiddata processing and communication infrastructure
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces an intermediary layer between remote players and physical gaming tables. This intermediary component manages the complex data processing, parameter customization, and communication protocols, shielding remote players from infrastructure complexity while enabling enhanced engagement through personalized virtual table access.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
