    Publication number: 20240105017
    Abstract: A gaming system includes a processor and a memory storing a plurality of stage game rule sets. Each rule set of the stage game rule sets corresponding with a stage of a game. The processor is programmed to cause display of columns each including symbol positions based on a first game configuration for a first instance of a first stage of the game and determine a first game outcome for the first instance based on the first game configuration and a first rule set. The processor is further programmed to change the first game configuration to a second game configuration based on a first trigger symbol occurring in the first game outcome and determine a second game outcome for a first game instance of a second stage of the game based on the second game configuration and a second rule set associated with the second stage.

  • Fractal switching systems and related electromechanical devices
    Patent number: 11776729
    Abstract: This invention entails the use of fractal shapes as cores for electromagnets, and a concurrent shape of a fractal for the windings which surround it. The novelty of this invention lies not only with the shaping, but the advantage of such shaping, which includes producing a smaller form factor electromagnet for the same desired magnetic field strength, when compared to a conventional electromagnet. It will be appreciated that a range of devices including electromagnets, based on such fractal shaping, are additionally novel and include but are not limited to solenoid switches, relays, and other devices in which the fractal electromagnets are used to make a change in state of some device.

  • CONFORMAL APERTURE ENGINE SENSORS AND MESH NETWORK
    Publication number: 20230304834
    Abstract: Wireless sensor devices are described which harvest energy and provide an antenna or antennas for wireless communication on a relatively small form factor, preferably one that is co-extensive with a largest component of the device, e.g., an antenna layer or sensor layer. The devices are able to sense and/or control certain specific parameters of a system; store energy, e.g., in a supercapacitor system or battery system; transmit that as information/signals via a wireless link, e.g., RF or optical link; receive information from other devices and relay that information. Such devices accordingly may be self-powered and wireless devices, and not dependent on a separate device or form factor to provide a power source. Such devices can be entirely autonomous or substantially so, can be mobile or fixed, and may require little servicing over a period of time. The devices can be used as sensor nodes in a wireless mesh network.

  • Oncological amelioration by irradiation and/or ensonification of tumor vascularization
    Patent number: 11357567
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed, including methods and systems/apparatus, that can be used to treat cancerous tissue by exploiting the fact that such tissues have vascular branching with fractal descriptions and fractal dimensions, which are different from those found in normal soft tissue vascular branching. Such fractal branching of diseased tissue can produce resonances, or preferential energy absorption, when irradiated by either ultrasound and/or radio frequencies of EM energy; these resonances are not shared by the vascularization in normal soft tissue. Accordingly, one or more specific arrangements of multiband radiation (e.g., RF and/or ultrasonic) used to irradiate such diseased tissue will cause heating and possibly localized necropsy of tumor blood vessels, with little or minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Embodiments can utilize ablation devices in conjunction with RF and/or ultrasonic sources.

  • Deflective electromagnetic shielding
    Patent number: 11322850
    Abstract: Systems according to the present disclosure provide one or more surfaces that function as power transferring surfaces for which at least a portion of the surface includes or is composed of “fractal cells” placed sufficiently closed close together to one another so that a surface (plasmonic) wave causes near replication of current present in one fractal cell in an adjacent fractal cell. A fractal of such a fractal cell can be of any suitable fractal shape and may have two or more iterations. The fractal cells may lie on a flat or curved sheet or layer and be composed in layers for wide bandwidth or multibandwidth transmission.
