  • Publication number: 20240087415
    Abstract: A slot type game with one or more dynamic paylines and/or dynamic payline modifiers includes a grid or matrix of symbols for which one or more symbol outcomes may be determined and presented. In embodiments with a dynamic payline, the slot type game also includes a payline determination for which a payline outcome may be determined and presented. The payline outcome may correspond to positions of symbols in the grid or matrix and may determine whether or not the corresponding symbols in the grid or matrix are winners. In embodiments with a dynamic payline modifier, the slot type game also includes a payline modifier for which a payline modifier outcome may be determined and presented. The payline modifier outcome may correspond to positions of symbols in one or more paylines and may determine whether or not the one or more paylines and/or symbols are modified.

  • Publication number: 20060236890
    Abstract: Apparatus, systems and methods for levitating and moving objects such as vehicles, doors and windows are shown and described herein. The embodiments incorporate a track with lower rails having lower permanent magnets and the object with upper rails having upper permanent magnets aligned with the lower rails and oriented to oppose the polarity of the lower permanent magnets. Ferrous backing plates may be incorporated behind the lower rails and/or the upper rails. Embodiments may also incorporate a third rail of an electroconductive material, and a driving disc positioned near the third rail. Permanent magnets in the driving disc may be rotated with the driving disc in the presence of the third rail to accelerate the upper rails with respects to the lower rails. The driving disc may be coupled one of the lower rails to maintain a desired alignment with the third rail.
