A system and method provides biometric authentication using proximity and secure information on a Personal Digital Key (PDK). The PDK is associated with and carried by a user. The PDK wirelessly communicates with a receiver/decoder circuit (RDC) that can be coupled to a variety of electronic devices. The PDK stores a biometric profile of a legitimate user in a secured memory. The PDK acquires biometric input from a user using a biometric reader of the PDK responsive to receiving a request for a biometric authentication of the legitimate user. The PDK compares the biometric input to the biometric profile to determine whether the biometric input matches the biometric profile. A secure wireless communication link is established between the PDK and a reader device responsive to a determination that the biometric input matches the biometric profile and the PDK device is within a predefined proximity of the reader device. The PDK device sends an identification code uniquely identifying the PDK device over the secure wireless communication link to the reader device. The reader device sends information including the identification code to a trusted third-party system for authentication.

Biometric authentication using proximity and secure information on a user device

Methods and systems of monitoring at least one feature associated with a patron in a gaming establishment. Such methods and systems may include detecting at least one physical feature associated with the patron and/or motions of one or more players participating in a game.

Systems and devices for identification of a feature associated with a user in a gaming establishment and related methods

A method and apparatus to automatically calibrate one or more attributes of a gaming system. For instance, the gaming system detects, via electronic analysis of an image by a neural network model, one or more objects (e.g., one or more coded, fiducial markers) that are planar with a surface of a gaming table. The gaming system further determines, via an isomorphic transformation associated with the one or more objects, a difference (e.g., in position and orientation) between the one or more objects and one or more physical features of the gaming table visible in the image. The gaming system automatically calibrates the gaming system based on the difference.

Gaming environment tracking system calibration

A gaming terminal includes an input device, an image sensor, and logic circuitry. The logic circuitry detects user input received at the input device and that is associated with a restricted action, receives, via the image sensor, image data that corresponds to the user input, applies at least one neural network model to the image data to classify pixels of the image data as representing human characteristics including at least one face and at least one pose model, compares, based at least partially on pixel coordinates of (i) the human characteristics within the received image data and (ii) a user input zone within the image data, each of the pose models to the user input zone and the faces, and permits, in response to one of the pose models matching (i) a face of the at least one face and (ii) the user input zone, the restricted action.

Gaming systems and methods using image analysis authentication

Disclosed are a system and method for training a neural network associated with a casino table game monitoring system. Synthetic images of objects extracted from a virtual table game environment are used to create a ground truth set, which is then used to train and test a neural network. When the neural network's classification of the extracted images is deemed accurate enough, the neural network may then be deployed in a casino to track the use of corresponding physical objects in real casino table game play as part of the casino table game monitoring system.

System and method for synthetic image training of a neural network associated with a casino table game monitoring system

A system including an image sensor that captures image data of a gaming table and a player area, and a tracking controller communicatively coupled to the image sensor. The tracking controller detects a player and a token set from the captured image data by applying an image neural network model to the image data to generate at least one key player data element for the player and at least one key token data element for the token set, generates a player data object representing physical characteristics of the player based on the key player data elements, links the player data object to a player identifier of the player, generates a token identifier based on the key token data elements, and links the token identifier to the player data object based on a physical relationship between the player and the token set indicated by the key data elements.

Systems and methods of automated linking of players and gaming tokens

Disclosed is a method and system involving augmenting content. The system augments content for an active event subject to a focus of a user, in an environment including a presentation of two or more active events. The system includes: a user focus determination unit including a camera that captures video data associated with the focus of the user; a memory and a buffer that store digital fingerprints from the events; an active content determination component that compares one or more digital fingerprints from an active event with the captured video for determination of the event being focused on by the user; and a display that displays content and augments the determined active event being focused upon by the user that was identified by the active content determination component.

A system and method provides biometric authentication using proximity and secure information on a Personal Digital Key (PDK). The PDK stores a biometric profile of a legitimate user in a secured memory. The PDK acquires biometric input from a user using a biometric reader of the PDK responsive to receiving a request for a biometric authentication of the legitimate user. The PDK compares the biometric input to the biometric profile to determine whether the biometric input matches the biometric profile. A secure wireless communication link is established between the PDK and a reader device if the biometric input matches the biometric profile and the PDK device is within proximity of the reader device to send an identification code uniquely identifying the PDK device over to the reader device. The reader device sends information including the identification code to a trusted third-party system for authentication.

Games, networked gaming systems, gaming machines and methods are disclosed that provide various player-centric games and rewards the casino patrons, as well as systems games, rewards, and tournaments to the casino patrons.

Player gaming console, gaming machine, networked gaming system

A system, method and device is set forth for play by multiple players using their mobile devices. Each player tethers their mobile device to a console for remote play whereupon, for each player, a separate account is established for the player. The player may fund their account for value for regulated gaming. The system, method and device are configure to be easily introduce into an existing casino enterprise system such they appear to the system as a gaming device while supporting separate and simultaneous play by the players.

System, method and apparatus for gaming in a convenient environment

Disclosed is a method and system for preventing replay attacks for mobile promotions associated with promotion devices. Upon the occurrence of a promotion winning event such as a designated outcome of a game played on the promotion device the user, via a software application accessible to their mobile device, forwards images of the event to a server over a network. The server determines entitlement to the promotion and analyzes data associated with the images and mobile device location and time to confirm that the event is new promotion winning event. Upon such confirmation an entitlement to the promotion is awarded to the user. The foregoing prevents unscrupulous users from logging multiple claims for the same promotion winning event.

System and method for augmented reality gaming using a mobile device

A system and method provides efficient and highly reliable customer and asset tracking. A Personal Digital Key (PDK) is associated with and carried by a user or fixed to an asset. The PDK wirelessly communicates with a receiver/decoder circuit (RDC) that can be coupled to a variety of electronic devices. The RDC authenticates the PDK based on received data and stores information to track customers and provide improved service. The RDC can be coupled to or integrated with a variety of electronic devices. The operation of the electronic device is determined based on an identification code of the detected PDK and an identification code of the RDC. The electronic device, the PDK or both can be configured with a personalized user interface and execute specific functions based on stored state information associated with the PDK and RDC identification codes.

Configuration of interfaces for a location detection system and application

A gaming device, system and method are set forth which includes a plurality of progressive jackpot pool levels with associated trigger conditions. When pool level jackpot is triggered through satisfaction of criteria, some or all of the current value of the pool is cascaded to another jackpot pool or may be wholly or partially awarded to the player. Where the trigger condition is related to the aggregated amount in the pool the triggering of one pool level may cascade and cause the awards of one or more subsidiary pools. The pools may contain value as well as entitlements to features. A video display displays the jackpot pools for the player to see representations of accumulations, the cascading of values to other pools and the award of all or portions of the pools to a player.
