Abstract: A delivery robot includes a propulsion system, a storage area arranged to contain at least one item for delivery, a wireless interface, a memory device, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive, from a robot management system (RMS) and via the wireless interface, a delivery request, wherein the delivery request identifies at least the item contained within the storage area, a delivery location, and a recipient. The processor is also configured to control the propulsion system to navigate the delivery robot to the delivery location in response to receiving the delivery request, receive an authentication credential from the recipient, authenticate the recipient based upon the authentication credential, and in response to authenticating the recipient, control the storage area to provide the at least one item contained within the storage area to the recipient.

Abstract: According to some implementations, when a triggering symbol lands in a defined area of a slot game display during an instance of a base game, there is a chance that the triggering symbol may change to a new symbol. If so, the new symbol may be held in the defined area and may persist during one or more additional purchased base game instances. The new symbol may persist if at least one additional triggering symbol lands in the defined area in subsequent bought games. Each additional triggering symbol may automatically change to a new symbol as the additional triggering symbol lands in the defined area of the slot game display. Whether the triggering symbol will change to a new symbol may involve a random component. In some examples, the greater the number of triggering symbols, the greater the probability the triggering symbol will change to the new symbol.

Abstract: An electronic gaming device is described. The electronic gaming device includes a display device including a first display area and a second display area and at least one processor configured to execute instructions. The instructions, when executed, cause the at least one processor to determine a first game outcome and cause display of a first game outcome amount in the first display area. The instructions also cause the at least one processor to cause display of the first game outcome amount in the second display area, the second display area including a plurality of past game outcome amounts. The instructions further cause the at least one processor to determine a second game outcome, provide a second game outcome amount, and, based upon the second game outcome including a trigger event, provide a past game outcome amount of the plurality of past game outcome amounts.

Abstract: A robot is described. The robot includes a camera device, 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 receive an input prompting the robot to navigate to a location in a venue for providing photo services with the camera device and cause the robot to navigate to the location. The instructions further cause the processor to capture, by the camera device, at least one photo at the location and provide access to a copy of the at least one photo to an authorized person.

Abstract: A pedestal system including a pedestal is described. The pedestal includes a base, an access door, and a button deck. The access door is rotatably coupled to the pedestal between a first open position and a first closed position wherein the access door is configured to allow access to an interior portion of the pedestal. The button deck includes one or more of a display and a button panel including one or more buttons. The button deck is rotatably coupled to the pedestal between a second open position and a second closed position wherein the button deck is configured to allow access to the interior portion of the pedestal when the button deck is in the second open position.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed for managing and preventing OLED screen burn-in for devices that are generally in an always-on state, operating on a continuous basis for extended periods of time, e.g., weeks or months.

Abstract: An electronic gaming machine is described. The electronic gaming machine includes a pedestal including a monitor configured to display an electronic game, a podium configured to receive user input during play of the electronic game, and a drive mechanism operable to selectively move the monitor relative to the pedestal between an open position and a closed position, the drive mechanism including at least one biasing element, a wire harness coupled to the monitor, at least one cable coupled to the podium, and a tensioner, wherein the podium and the tensioner provide a force to control movement of the monitor between the open position and the closed position.

Abstract: A gaming device may perform various electronic games, such as a keno game, and may include a game controller configured to control operations of the performed electronic games. During the course of a game performed on the gaming device, the game controller may control various winning scenarios, including alternate winning scenarios. At certain stages in a keno game, a number of markers may be selected. Before, after, or while these markers are selected, the game controller may determine how many bonus markers will be selected. Based on the number of selected bonus markers, the game controller may initiate a bonus draw phase where an additional number of markers may be selected. After all markers have been selected, any selected bonus markers may be added together and the calculated sum may be added to a credit balance associated with a player of the gaming device.

Abstract: A system for playing a wagering game is described. The system includes a display device, a memory device, and a processor configured to execute instructions stored in the memory device, which when executed, cause the processor to at least: provide the wagering game on the display device; determine whether a game event has occurred during the wagering game; store a copy of the game event in the memory device in response to determining that the game event has occurred; generate digital content in response to determining that the game event has occurred; overlay the digital content on the copy of the game event; and provide access to the copy of the game event with the digital content overlaid thereon to at least one replay recipient.

Abstract: An electronic gaming system is described. The electronic gaming system includes a server computing device configured to receive an input from a first user computing device including a request to initiate an electronic game and assign a plurality of user devices to the electronic game. The server is further configured to identify a second player account as an initial play player account, wherein the initial play player account is designated to initiate a first play of the electronic game. The server is further configured to transmit content to a second user computing device that causes a gameplay user interface at the second user computing device to include a first display area including video images from a video stream from the second user computing device and a second display area including video images received by the server from a video stream received from the first user computing device.

Abstract: A loyalty program management system associated with an enterprise location is provided. The loyalty program management system is programmed to: a) receive a plurality of input data associated with a plurality of patrons, wherein the plurality of input data represents actions of the plurality of patrons; b) determine a current location of a patron of the plurality of patrons, wherein the current location of the patron is not at the enterprise location; and c) transmit a message to a computer device associated with the patron including a prize to be awarded if the patron visits the enterprise location.

Abstract: An electronic gaming machine includes a processor configured to control a display device to display a matrix of symbol positions and a bonus meter, where the bonus meter displays a bonus prize. In response to a bonus game trigger condition being satisfied, the processor is configured to control the display device to display a plurality of volatility options, each being player selectable and associated with a number of free spins and a multiple or another percentage of the bonus prize.
