Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to artificially intelligent player avatars in a virtual casino. Generally speaking, various types of information related to a player can be collected and aggregated across a number of different real world and virtual reality sources. This aggregated data can be used to generate a player model. Similarly, information can be collected about one or more electronic games and this information can be used to generate a game model for each game. An avatar can then be generated and presented in a virtual reality gaming venue, e.g., a virtual casino. This avatar can then interact with the play based on the player model and the game model.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for improving the resilience of a network of positioning-unit devices to failure of the reference device that controls the network timebase via timing information in its signal. In certain embodiments a predetermined one of the positioning-unit devices is configured to monitor the reference signal, assess serviceability of that signal and take control of the network if it determines that signal is unserviceable. Continuity of network synchronisation is thereby maintained despite the reference signal being unserviceable. Preferably the predetermined positioning-unit device is configured to obtain information on the reference signal from at least one other positioning-unit device for assessing reference signal serviceability.
