  • Publication number: 20240161716
    Abstract: Systems and methods permit or cause content to be displayed by a plurality of gaming displays, such as gaming machine displays and/or external displays. Content may be synchronously displayed by multiple gaming displays, such as one or more EGM displays and one or more external gaming displays, where the content which is displayed by the different displays may be the same or be different, and may be provided by a content controller and/or may be provided or triggered by a gaming machine. The systems and methods permit or cause content to be synchronously displayed across multiple gaming displays, such as in time and/or space. In some examples, the content is configured as a content “package” which is associated with one or more displays.

  • Patent number: 9935478
    Abstract: A power delivery rate from a renewable power source to a load is managed by determining, by processing circuitry, a change in a power generation rate, determining, by the processing circuitry, whether the change in the power generation rate exceeds a limit, and then, adjusting, by control circuitry, a power transfer rate to or from a power storage device, such that the adjusting is sufficient to prevent the power delivery rate from exceeding the limit.

  • Patent number: 9368968
    Abstract: A control system for an energy storage device is coupled to sensors on an electrical grid. The control system is configured to receive a measurement from each of the sensors. The control system determines, based on the received measurements, whether a grid event is a local event or a distributed event. The control system selects a response mode for controlling the energy storage device based on whether the grid event is determined to be a local event or a distributed event.
