In one aspect, a device management platform is provided. The device management platform includes at least one gaming device coupled to a host system and a plurality of modular devices in wireless communication with the host system and forming a wireless mesh network therebetween. At least one of the plurality of modular devices is coupled to the gaming device and configured to determine, based on information retrieved via the wireless network, a location of the gaming device, and generate a profile based on a device configuration of the gaming device and the location of the gaming device, where the profile defines a role of the gaming device.

Modular hardware and software platform for a gaming system

A gaming system for evaluating a jackpot using a time cap is provided. The system includes a processor and a memory, wherein the processor is configured to execute instructions stored in the memory which when executed, cause the processor to at least store, in the memory, a jackpot including time cap parameters and a value of the jackpot. The instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to select a time cap based on the time cap parameters. The instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to determine, in response to a game instance, that the selected time cap has been reached. The instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to credit, in response to the determination, the value of the progressive jackpot to a player credit balance.

A bonusing system for gaming devices provides a first bonus award eligible to be won via participating gaming devices. The bonusing system is configured to: establish the first bonus award as available to participating gaming devices based on a bonus award configuration; register a plurality of electronic gaming machines (EGMs) and a plurality of table gaming devices to participate in the first bonus award; receive, from a first electronic gaming machine (EGM), a first wager event message indicating a first wager being performed by a first player at the first EGM; receive, from a first table gaming device, a second wager event message indicating a second wager being performed by a second player at the first table gaming device; determine that one of the first and second wager events results in an award of the bonus award based on output of a random number generator (RNG), the award of the bonus award identifying one or more of a winning player and a winning gaming device; and award the bonus award to the winning player at the winning gaming device based on the determination.

A robot is described. The robot includes a propulsion system, a wireless interface, a memory device, and a processor configured to execute instructions stored in the memory device. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to determine, based upon a communication received at the wireless interface, to perform a celebration associated with a trigger event that has occurred on a casino floor and in response to determining to perform the celebration, control the propulsion system to cause the robot to perform at least a portion of the celebration.

Systems and methods for evaluating a jackpot using a time cap

A bonusing system for gaming devices provides a bonus award eligible to be won via participating gaming devices. A messaging application programming interface (API) receives wagering event messages in a first message format from third-party servers. A message queue receives wagering event messages from the messaging API in a second message format. A bonusing system server manages award determination for the bonus award. The system is configured to: receive, by the messaging API from a third-party server that manages wagering gaming sessions at a plurality of gaming tables, a first wagering event message indicating a wager event performed by a player at a first gaming table; convert, by the messaging API, the first wagering event message from the first message format to the second message format; transmit the first wagering event message for delivery to the bonusing system server; determine, by the bonusing system server, that the wagering event results in an award of the bonus award based on an output of a random number generator (RNG); and award the bonus award based on the determination.
