As an example, a method is disclosed that includes receiving an invitation that provides a description of audio content to be shared, providing a query to a user of an electronic gaming machine requesting a confirmation to play the audio content to be shared, receiving a positive response to the query, sending a command to a different electronic gaming machine to transmit the audio content to be shared, receiving the audio content to be shared from the different electronic gaming machine, identifying a subset of a plurality of speakers from a speaker array to activate based on a determined position of the user relative to the speaker array, and causing the identified subset of the plurality of speakers to output the audio content to be shared as part of a directed sound beam.

Audio sharing during private listening at an electronic gaming machine

Gaming devices, systems, and methods include a gaming device that includes a display device and an image capture device to capture a plurality of images of an eye of a player of the gaming device at a plurality of respective times. The gaming device generates, for each image of the plurality of images, gaze direction data indicative of a gaze direction of the eye of the player at the respective time corresponding to the image. The gaming device accesses a player database including player data for a plurality of players, the player data including, for each player, stored gaze data. Based on the gaze direction data and the stored gaze data, the gaming device determines a player parameter value corresponding to a player parameter for the player. Based on the player parameter value, the gaming device modifies a game feature of a wagering game at the gaming device.
