Patent number: 12363194Abstract: Systems and methods for synchronizing data structures in computer networks and distributed computing environments are disclosed. A system can provide a network resource to a client device corresponding to a network profile, establish a network communication session with the client device, and transmit instructions for network application formatting during the network communication session. The system can receive a second request for a network exchange during the network communication session. The system can determine that a path for an object of the network communication session satisfies at least one intersection criterion, the at least one intersection criterion associated with at least one second transmission value. The system can update a second data structure of the network profile.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2024Date of Patent: July 15, 2025Assignee: DK Crown Holdings Inc.Inventors: Kyle Morris, Justin Robert Huxley

Publication number: 20250182557Abstract: Described herein are gaming systems and methods for providing timed inflation games. A data processing system can receive a wager and generate a graphical user interface that includes a graphical indicator representing the score for the gameplay along with a first interactive element that updates the score in response to user interaction with it. The state of the graphical indicator increases as the score for the gameplay increases. The data processing system can determine that interaction with the first interactive element has ceased and initiate a timer to count the passage of time up to an expiration threshold. The data processing system can also present a second interactive element that can terminate the gameplay, and the credit balance can be adjusted based on the wager and score in response to user interaction with the second interactive element before the timer expires.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2023Publication date: June 5, 2025Applicant: DK Crown Holdings Inc.Inventors: Jason March, Kyle Morris, Ashford Kneitel, Brent Corey Weiss

Publication number: 20250157282Abstract: Described herein are gaming systems and methods for providing a navigation-based game. A data processing system can receive a wager and present a graphical user interface with a plurality of rows or columns, each of which can include a respective set of spaces. Each space can correspond to a respective space condition that can cause the game state to be updated. The respective space condition of a subset of the respective set of spaces can include a termination condition that can cause a play of the game to terminate. The data processing system can receive input to initiate navigation of an icon to a target space of the respective set of spaces of a first row or a first column. The data processing system can determine an updated game state for the play of the game based on the respective space condition of the target space.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2025Publication date: May 15, 2025Applicant: DK Crown Holdings Inc.Inventors: Kyle Morris, Ashford Kneitel, Charles Raymond Mousseau

Publication number: 20250104530Abstract: Systems and methods for providing bonus games based on positive and negative bonus accumulators are disclosed. The gaming system can generate, responsive to receiving an indication to begin a play of a game, a grid of symbols. Each symbol can have an attribute corresponding to one or more of a positive bonus value, a negative bonus value, and a credit value. The gaming system can calculate a positive accumulator value, a negative accumulator value, and a credit accumulator value based on the attribute. The gaming system can detect a condition to initiate a bonus game, and execute the bonus game based on the positive accumulator value and the negative accumulator value. The gaming system can adjust, responsive to executing the bonus game, a credit balance based on an outcome of the bonus game and the credit accumulator value.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2024Publication date: March 27, 2025Applicant: DK Crown Holdings Inc.Inventor: Kyle Morris

Publication number: 20060106654Abstract: The methods and systems for coordinating the travel itineraries of multiple travelers, who are leaving from more than one origin location, but are arriving at the same destination location, provide automated techniques for determining which itineraries for each traveler best meets the specified criteria for the trip. For example, a travel organizer may specify certain travel criteria for a trip, such as the relative importance of the travel schedules versus the price. A set of suggested travel itineraries that most closely meet the specified criteria are then provided, in addition to the amount of time between when any two travelers arrive at and/or leave from the destination location, and the price. Furthermore, the travel coordination techniques provide flexibility by allowing replacement of one or more of the suggested itineraries with other possible itineraries and recalculation of the time amounts and the price(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2005Publication date: May 18, 2006Inventors: Ladislav Lettovsky, Saurabh Mehta, Kyle Morris, Richard Ratliff
