Abstract: Interactive, electronic guides for an object may include one or more 3D models, and one or more associated tasks, such as how to assemble, operate, or repair an aspect of the object. A user electronic device may scan an encoded tag on the object, and transmit the scan data to an electronic guide distribution server. The server may receive an electronic guide generated by an electronic guide generator having a 3D model repository and a task repository, the guide associated with the encoded tag. Guide managers may add or modify 3D models and/or tasks to broaden the available guides, and tag producers may generate encoded tags using new and/or modified 3D models and tasks and apply tags to objects.

Abstract: A clean room supporting multiple air filter elements within a frame having multiple tracks to support extensions on individual edges of the air filter elements. Within the multiple tracks are a tape of elastic ultralow density polytetrafluoroethylene polymer having a specific density of always less than 1.0, preferably less than 0.8 and most preferred as greater than 0.25 and less than 0.6 positioned along the length of the tracks.

Abstract: A gaming machine has a processor; a memory; player input controls; and an electronic display device displaying a wagering game. After a wager, the display device displays images from the memory of simulations of multiple symbols providing polyhedrons. Each polyhedron has axes of rotation about predetermined axes of revolution within the polyhedron. Memory provides stop positions for display of faces for forming paylines in games. Paylines include fully displayed faces and multiple faces simultaneously displayed at the stop position. The electronic display device displays from memory a simulated rotation about the axes of rotation according to: c) a random selection by the processor of an axis of rotation for at least one symbol providing polyhedron or d) player input control selected axis of rotation for the at least one symbol providing polyhedron The processor resolves the wagers based upon comparison of the displayed simulations against a paytable.

Abstract: A system for transferring credit within a gaming environment includes: a) A wagering apparatus having an electronic accounting function and a data-providing or transferring function. The providing or transferring function is in communication with the accounting function to enable display of at least available credit identified by the electronic accounting system; b) A portable data or information capture device that is able to capture data of at least available credit and provide a second transmittable data pack of the at least available credit; and c) An at least one second wagering apparatus having an information or data capture system capable of capturing the second information transmission of the at least available credit, the second wagering apparatus being in communication with a processor configured to convert the captured data into credit available for wagering or payout in the second wagering apparatus.

Abstract: A system and method for providing an electronic card game of the present invention includes a table having a table top with a playing surface and a plurality of electronic player interaction areas (EPIAs) located around the playing surface. Each electronic player interaction area is designed to provide a player interface for interaction with one of the players. A wager options buttons, such as “Raise”, “Fold”, and “Check” buttons are defined in each EPIA to allow the players to make pre-selected wagering action in advance as the electronic card game proceeds. A game computer is coupled to the plurality of EPIAs for administering the electronic card game and for determining when the player is allowed to activate on of the wager options buttons.

Abstract: An electronic poker table and method provide an electronic poker game to a plurality of players. The electronic poker table includes a table having a table top with a playing surface, a plurality of electronic player interaction areas located around a periphery of the table top, and a game computer. Each electronic player interaction area provides a player interface for interaction with one of the players. Each player interface has a rabbit button. At least one hand of the electronic poker game is administered using virtual cards. A winner for the at least one hand is determined and a pot is awarded to the winner. The hand includes at least one common card and, after the winner has been determined, a player may view any undealt common cards by actuating the rabbit button.

Abstract: A system and method provides an electronic poker game to a plurality of players on an electronic poker table. A game computer administers the electronic poker game by dealing one or more hands using electronic cards and electronic chips. Each hand includes one or more betting rounds. The game computer allows the players to make wagers into a pot with the electronic chips during the one or more betting rounds. The game computer dynamically determines a rake amount of a pot and retains the rake amount from the pot.

Abstract: An electronic gaming system has at least one table having a plurality of electronic player interaction areas (EPIA's) spaced preferably about the table so that a gaming player may locate oneself in front of a respective EPIA to play a game. The gaming system preferably has a host console that communicates with each EPIA preferably via a server for managerial control of the plurality of tables. Preferably, a software-based administrator tool operates through a user interface for the creation of at least one gaming profile type by the deletion, editing and creation of various gaming rule parameters. A software-based house collection tool operates similarly to the administrator tool for creating a plurality of house collection profiles that may then be assigned to various game profiles.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for a remotely accessible, on-line virtual-system education lab. In this embodiment, students can connect with the lab server from any client system connected, directly or indirectly, with a common network, using a conventional web browser or other thin client. When the client connects, the server will create a virtual lab computer system which the user can operate and manipulate through the client system, as if he were working at a conventional lab computer system. The preferred embodiment allows the user to save the state of the lab at any time, to resume later, and will load specific system states on the virtual lab computer system according to the user's identity and selections.
