Abstract: Gaming devices and methods are set forth which provide for face or body tracking to provide a three-dimensional effect to at least a portion of the content displayed. A first display overlays at least a portion of a second display for an auto-stereo electronic display. The first display is adapted to be controlled to be transparent or display vertical barrier lines. The second display displays auto-stereo images of content in coordination with presentation of the vertical barrier lines, to provide a three dimensional effect based on the face or body tracking.

Abstract: Gaming devices and methods are set forth which provide for face or body tracking to provide a three-dimensional effect to at least apportion of the content displayed. A first video display overlays at least a portion of a second video display. The first display is adapted to be controlled to be transparent or display vertical lenticular lines. The second display displays video content. In response to a command the first display assumes a lenticular configuration to cooperate with the display of video content on the second display to provide a three dimensional effect.

Abstract: Devices and methods are set forth to perform operations that perform head tracking of a player of a wagering game machine. The operations can further include presenting different auto-stereo content in response to determining the movement of the head of the player.

Abstract: Gaming devices and methods are set forth which provide for face or body tracking to generate content concurrently displayed with several degrees of the motion parallax effect.

Abstract: Gaming devices and methods are set forth which provide for face or body tracking to provide gesture input and also to generate content displayed based upon several degrees of the motion parallax effect.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for enabling an augmented reality interaction system and a mobile device to overlay a virtual 3D component over a physical 3D component with which the virtual 3D component interacts. The method includes: enabling a user to capture a live camera image of a gaming machine cabinet via a camera on the mobile device; determining if there are image tags on the gaming machine cabinet in the live camera image; producing a virtual rendering of the gaming machine cabinet; determining virtual 3D components to be displayed over an image of a virtual gaming machine cabinet; comparing a virtual depth rendering of the virtual 3D components to a virtual depth rendering of the virtual gaming machine cabinet; and overlaying virtual 3D components without the subtracted elements onto a live camera image of the virtual gaming machine cabinet on a display of the mobile device.

Abstract: Techniques for authenticating one or more entities are disclosed. Authentication can be performed based on one or more attributes associated with an image and/or input provided in connection with an image. The image is effectively provided for authenticating one or more entities associated with a computing environment. The attributes which can be measures include the manner in which an image has been created and/or traced by a person being authenticated. A person can initially register with an authentication system by creating and/or tracing an image. Subsequently, the person can be provided with the same, similar and/or completely different image in order to be authenticated by the authentication system. It will be appreciated that the image needs not be a signature or provide any personal information about the person being authenticated.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for enabling an augmented reality tracking system and a mobile device to display augmented reality by overlaying a virtual 3D object over a physical 3D object. The method includes: enabling a user to capture a live camera image of a 3D object via camera on the mobile device; determining if there are image tags on the 3D object in the live camera image; using the one or more image tags to access information used by the augmented reality system; and overlaying virtual 3D objects onto a live camera image of the virtual 3D object on a display of the mobile device to produce augmented reality effects, wherein the augmented reality tracking system establishes a communication channel with the gaming machine enabling additional elements of the game to be augmented on the mobile device, and elements of the game content to be influenced by the augmented state.

Abstract: A method is disclosed of enabling a player to use remote home terminals or mobile devices via a network to enroll in a casino tournament gaming system, in addition to winning prizes offered as an outcome of a primary game on underlying gaming machines located in a casino. The method includes enabling enrollment in the casino tournament gaming system to form tournament teams via remote home terminals or mobile devices, wherein the system uses existing social networks to leverage pre-existing relationships between players that are members of the social network to form tournament teams; enabling play of a game of chance on the underlying gaming machines that award game credits that are redeemable for a payout and are controlled by overall payout percentages relating to the game of chance; and facilitating entry into one or more skill-based tournament games in the player's tournament team against other tournament teams.

Abstract: A video gaming system is disclosed that includes one or more game processors, one or more video displays, an apparatus for a player to control the play of the game, and a memory device. The memory device stores software to control the game processor and is configured to: enable the player to select a virtual game to play from a plurality of virtual games on a virtual game floor; display play by the player of the selected game on the one or more video displays; display virtual gameplay of the non-selected games from the plurality of virtual games on a virtual game floor; display on the one or more video displays an outcome history of the play of the selected games; and enable the player to choose to begin playing a non-selected game instead of the selected game from the plurality of virtual games on a virtual game floor.

Abstract: Devices and methods are set forth which provide for face or body tracking to provide gesture input and also to generate content displayed based upon the motion parallax of the player to create a 3D effect. Issuance of a command may cause the display to go from the 2D display of content to content presented according to motion parallax. Further the intensity of the motion parallax effect may be presented and switched between a first and a lesser, second application.

Abstract: Gaming machines, systems and methods for presenting wager-based games having three-dimensional paylines are disclosed. Gaming machines include an exterior housing, master gaming controller, display device, speakers and a network interface. A multi-layer display device that presents three-dimensional paylines includes a display controller that generates or transmits display signals, a first display screen that presents a first visual display and a second display screen that presents a second visual display, where the second display screen is positioned behind the first display screen such that the first and second visual displays combine for a single visual presentation. Each of the first and second visual displays includes symbols, symbol portions, stops and/or designations used to form a three-dimensional payline. A three-dimensional payline can jump from one display screen to the other at least once.
