Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing wireless signals in a wagering game environment are described herein. In some embodiment, a wagering game machine includes a wagering game unit configured to present wagering games. The wagering game machine can also include a network interface configured to exchange, with other devices on a wagering game network, information about the wagering games. The wagering game machine can also include a wireless signal detection device configured to detect wireless signals in a wagering game environment and to create wireless signal data for use in determining whether the wireless signals interfere with wireless communications of the wagering game network.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a wagering game server includes an options visualization controller configured to receive search criteria and filter information for searching wagering titles, wherein the search is based on the search criteria and filter information. The server may include a game content unit configured to store the wagering game titles. The wagering game system can also include a wagering game machine configured to present the one or more wagering games in a visual map, the visual map comprising nodes that contain summary information associated with the wagering game titles, wherein the nodes are arranged in node groups, and wherein the node groups are graphically connected by graphical connectors. The wagering game machine can present a movable filter object configured to visually depict a filter criteria, wherein the movable filter object is movable onto one or more of the nodes to provide the filtering information to the wagering game server.

Abstract: A wagering game system and its operations are described herein. In some embodiments, the operations can include presenting a wagering game on a display device of a wagering game machine. The operations can also include detecting head movements and facial gestures of a player of the wagering game via a video capture device of the wagering game machine, and generating player input data based on the head movements and facial gestures of the player. The operations can further include modifying wagering game content based on the player input data associated with the head movements and facial gestures of the player, and presenting results of the wagering game on the display device of the wagering game machine.

Abstract: A wagering game system and its operations are described herein. In embodiments, the operations can determine a wagering game in progress for a wagering game session, and determine an electronic playing card that is in use for the wagering game that uses playing cards. The operations can also determine primary content related to the wagering game, and electronically present the primary content on the electronic playing card for use in the wagering game. The primary content can include playing elements (e.g., card ranks and card suits) for the wagering game. The operations can also determine secondary content to be presented on the electronic playing card, and electronically present the secondary content on the electronic playing card during the wagering game session. The secondary content can include wagering games that are different from the primary content (e.g., secondary wagering games that use playing elements other than cards, such as slot games).

Abstract: Electronic paper (e-paper) can be incorporated onto player tracking cards (101) to allow logos, themes, and/or other content (e.g., text, images, etc.) displayed on player tracking cards to be updated. An identifier is determined based on data read from a magnetic strip on a rewritable display card (503). The rewriteable display card comprises electronic paper (103). Account information associated with the identifier is received (505). Content to be displayed on the electronic paper is determined based, at least in part, on the account information (507). The content is written to the electronic paper (513).

Abstract: Described herein are processes and devices that visually present wagering game options. One of the devices described is a wagering game system. The wagering game system can receive search criteria for wagering games and determine wagering games to present to a wagering game player. The wagering game system can present the wagering game in visual selection environments, such as a visual map or a virtual universe. The visual map selection environment can display summary information about the wagering games on visual map nodes. The virtual universe selection environment can display summary information about the wagering games on virtual universe objects.
