  • Publication number: 20250111738
    Abstract: Systems and methods receive an input that triggers a request for a random numeric output associated with an outcome that indicates whether resource(s) are distributed to a player account of a player of a gaming application, and transmit the request for generation of the random numeric output to a third party server, the request indicating parameter(s) configured to influence the random numeric output and including data indicating weighted variables used to influence the outcome. A digitally signed electronic output file including the random numeric output is received, the digitally signed electronic output file being encrypted and including a stamp of authentication thereby cryptographically binding an electronic identity to the random numeric output. Key(s) stored to a key index are accessed and the digitally signed electronic output file is verified using the key(s). The random numeric output is authenticated and applied to a promotional draw to determine the outcome.

  • Publication number: 20250111741
    Abstract: Systems receive a request from a player device for a random numeric output associated with an outcome that indicates whether resource(s) are to be distributed to a player account of a player of a computer game. The request is authenticated, which includes determining a geographic location of the player from an identifier of the player device, and a current amount of player points already attributed to the player account are determined from player data associated with the player account. An API request associated with the random numeric output to be generated by the outside server is generated and transmitted to an outside server that includes the current amount of player points. A randomly generated numeric input is received from the outside server and based on the current amount of player points, and the outcome is determined based on the randomly generated numeric input and the resource(s) are distributed.

  • Patent number: 12235616
    Abstract: Systems and methods for creating and using equipment definitions are provided. An archetypal device used to identify one or more first data points associated with the archetypal device. A point definition is generated for each identified first data point associated with the archetypal device. Each point definition includes an abstraction of a text string extracted from the corresponding first data point that is applicable to multiple different devices of the same type of building equipment. The generated point definitions are used to create an equipment definition for a type of building equipment. The equipment definition can be used to identify first data points associated with other devices of the same type of building equipment and to automatically create equipment objects representing such devices.
