  • Patent number: 12688750
    Abstract: A position and an orientation of a player in a player area surrounded by a three-dimensional holographic display device is determined. The display device displays a first wagering game and a second wagering game based on the position and the orientation of the player to position the first wagering game in a central field of view of the player and to position the second wagering game in a peripheral field of view outside the central field of view. A game event is determined in the second wagering game. Based on the determined game event, the display device moves the second wagering game to position the second wagering game in the central field of view of the player.

  • Publication number: 20260196106
    Abstract: An electronic gaming machine (EGM) is provided. The EGM includes a processor circuit and a memory device which stores a plurality of instructions, which when executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to perform operations. Operations include displaying, by a display device of a gaming device, a graphical interface for a wagering game including multiple reels, multiple prize disks and an unlock symbol that includes a first unlock symbol that corresponds to an unlock function of one of the prize disks. Operations include determining that the unlock symbol comprises the first unlock symbol that causes one of the prize disks to become unlocked, determining that one of the primary game symbols includes a secondary game symbol that corresponds to user access to the secondary game, and awarding the user with a bonus game award based on a combination of corresponding bonus game symbols.

  • Publication number: 20260195053
    Abstract: A gaming device includes a display device, a processor circuit, a battery charging circuit that is conductively coupled to a cabinet input power source and that provides a charging current to a battery, and a power state output signal that is transmitted to the processor circuit and that includes a value that depends on the first switching power input. The device further includes a controller that receives, from the processor circuit, an interrupt signal that indicates that first switching power has failed and transmits a switch signal to the power switching circuit that is caused to switch from providing power from the cabinet input power source to providing power from the battery, a first memory that includes operating memory instructions, and a second memory that is configured to receive the operating memory instructions from the first memory responsive to the interrupt signal indicating that first switching power has failed.

  • Patent number: 12676053
    Abstract: A processor circuit of a gaming device and/or gaming system determine a first game symbol associated with a first game award value at a first game symbol position of an array of game symbol positions, and a second game symbol associated with a second game award value is determined at a second game symbol position of the array of game symbol positions. A first total game award value is determined for a game award based on the first game award value and the second game award value. Based on a further determination that the first game symbol position is adjacent to the second game symbol position in the array, the first total game award value of the game award is increased to a second total game award value, and the game award comprising the second total game award value is awarded.

  • Patent number: 12670536
    Abstract: A system includes a processor circuit and a memory coupled to the processor circuit. The memory includes machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to receive a request from an Electronic Gaming Machine to access a casino operator management function via a casino communication network. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to authenticate the request. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to, based on successful authentication of the request, provide the casino operator management function to a Graphical User Interface (GUI) of the EGM via the casino communication network.
