The gaming device further includes a bracket coupled to the cabinet and positioned within the interior cavity and a button deck coupled to the bracket and extending through the slot. The button deck includes a first transparent surface, a second transparent surface, and a transparent display panel positioned between the first transparent surface and the second transparent surface.

Abstract: A bartop gaming device is provided. The bartop gaming device may include a housing defining an internal cavity. The bartop gaming device may further include a monitor coupled to the housing and configured to move relative thereto between a closed position and an open position. The housing may define an opening providing access to the internal cavity of the housing when the monitor is in the open position. The bartop gaming device may further include a bill validator coupled to the monitor, wherein when the monitor is moved from the closed position to the open position, the bill validator is moved from the internal cavity toward the opening.

Abstract: A modular housing for an electronic gaming assembly is described. The modular housing includes a front wall including an upper portion, a first side portion, and a second side portion. The first and second side portions extend from the upper portion and at least partially define an opening, and the first and second side portions each have an inner edge and an outer edge. The modular housing also includes a first side wall extending from the outer edge of the first side portion and a second side wall extending from the outer edge of the second side portion. The opening is sized to receive the electronic gaming assembly. At least one of the first side wall and the second side wall forms an acute angle with the front wall.

Abstract: An electronic gaming system including a casino management server and an electronic casino device is described. The electronic casino device includes a beacon configured to wirelessly communicate with end user devices (EUDs) of players and a processor. The processor executes instructions which cause the processor to transmit a request for a custom beacon ID, receive the custom beacon ID, and cause the beacon to wirelessly transmit the custom beacon ID to the EUD. The casino management server is configured to receive a connection request and validate that the received beacon ID matches the custom beacon ID. The casino management server is further configured to receive instructions from the EUD such that the player plays a game operated on the electronic casino device by physically interacting with the EUD, wherein the instructions received from the EUD include a low-bandwidth instruction including no more than two bytes.

Abstract: A gaming machine, system and method providing variable position display capable of display movement and an extendable screen responsive to gaming conditions. The gaming machine includes a cabinet, a variable position display, an extendable display screen, and a controller. The variable position display rotates, tilts, pans, or some combination of translation, rotation, tilting and panning, in relation to the cabinet and in response to at least one or more predefined gaming conditions. The controller initiates a movement sequence movement of the variable position display, from a first position to a second position, and initiates the game program tailored to retractably extend the extendable display screen with respect to the cabinet relatively to the movement of the variable position display, and present the game and game outcomes of the game on the variable position display in the second position.

Abstract: Gaming systems, methods, and machines provided herein may include dynamic displays in which sets of movable display units are arranged such that movable display units of each set are translatable along corresponding non-parallel first axes.

Abstract: An electronic gaming device is described. The electronic gaming device includes a display device, a base, and a moveable coupling mechanism configured to couple the display device to the base and facilitate movement of the display device along an arcuate path and relative to the base between a first position and a second position wherein in the first position the display device is held in an upright position and in the second position the display device is held in a lowered position.

Abstract: A system that includes a display device, and a processor configured to control the display device to display digital content. The processor further configured to, in response to controlling the display device to display the digital content, increase an incremental value associated with a progressive jackpot from a first incremental amount to a second incremental amount. The processor is also configured to control a progressive meter to display at least one increase of the progressive jackpot by the second incremental amount, such that a running total amount of the progressive jackpot increases more rapidly in response to the digital content being displayed.

Abstract: Innovations in game design features of an electronic gaming device are presented. A progressive jackpot is associated with an escrow. At least a portion of the escrow can be applied to a reset amount for the progressive jackpot. The amount of escrow applied to the reset amount can vary, such as based on a current escrow value. The progressive jackpot can be associated with an increment rate and an escrow rate. The increment rate or the escrow rate may vary based on one or more parameters, including one or more game parameters. Game parameters can include game output parameters, such as a coin out amount, a number of games played, a handpay amount, or a number of players actively engaged in game play with a particular progressive jackpot. Changes in how escrow is applied, or how increment or escrow rates are determined, can be based on time periods or events.

Abstract: A gaming system includes at least one processor configured to: receive, from a mobile computing device of a player, a digital image of the player captured during a gaming session of an electronic game; analyze the digital image using facial expression analysis techniques to determine a current emotional state of the player; categorize the current emotional state of the player, the categorizing includes a first state representing a desired emotional level; and transmit instructions to the mobile gaming device causing the mobile computing device to initiate a game session action during the gaming session when the current emotional state is not the desired emotional level, the game session action is configured to cause the player to transition to the desired emotional level.
