Abstract: An artificial intelligence (AI) model generates a control input for a virtual player of a video game based on input state data. A video stream of the video game is generated based on the control input for the virtual player of the video game. The video stream is transmitted to a client device. Training feedback data is received from the client device and includes a time-dependent series of human-generated feedback elements correlated to the video stream. Each feedback element indicates that the control input for the virtual player of the video game, as generated by the AI model, is either a player-approved control input or a player-disapproved control input. AI model training includes reinforcing use of the player-approved control input for the virtual player in response to the input state data, and diminishing use of the player-disapproved control input for the virtual player in response to the input state data.

By leveraging the MEMS sensor device and the power element, the assembly and deployment of the electronic target becomes straightforward and less susceptible to damage. Moreover, the use of wireless communications relieves limitation by the venue and reduces susceptibility to interference. This simplifies the configuration and setup process for interactions between targets, achieving increased variability in shooting modes and enhancing entertainment or training effectiveness.

Abstract: A system may validate execution of a video game to identify the existence of a coding error or of cheating by a video game player. The system can record action events performed by a video game within an action event log, which may be provided to a validation system that can repeat the action events identified in the action event log. By comparing a state of the video game with a state generated by the validation system responsive to repeating the action events, the system can determine whether a coding error exists or if a user is cheating (e.g., using cheat software) when playing the video game. Further, the system can use isomorphic code enabling the validation system to repeat the action events independent of the system hosting the video game. Thus, the system hosting the video game may continue to execute the video game while validation occurs.
