Patent number: 10994191Abstract: An electronic card game system and method using NFC or RFID electromagnetic communication, including an initiator having a driving coil, a first card having a secondary coil with a capacitor, and a playing piece having a receiving coil. The initiator and the first card may be placed on a playing surface so that at least a portion of the driving coil and at least a portion of the secondary coil overlap. Similarly, the first card and the playing piece may be placed on a playing surface so that at least a portion of the receiving coil and at least a second portion of the secondary coil overlap. These overlapped coils allow a driving signal initiated at the driving coil to be transmitted through the secondary coil and received by the receiving coil.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2019Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: Mattel, Inc.Inventors: Nicholas S Amireh, Vladimir Buzga, Vladimir Sosnovskiy

Publication number: 20170206561Abstract: Techniques are provided for an interactive point of purchase product display. The interactive point of purchase product display includes a product placement region, one or more products located in the product placement region, an input device configured to receive an input signal, a controller device, and a selection indicator device. The input device may receive data about a potential consumer or customer. The controller device is coupled to the input device and the one or more products and is configured to receive data from the input device responsive to the input signal, select a product in response to the receive input and generate a selection signal identifying the product resulting in the attention of a customer to be drawn to the product.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2017Publication date: July 20, 2017Inventors: Eric E. Skifstrom, Peter E. Teel, Vladimir Buzga, Mary M. Hinkley, Vladimir Sosnovskiy
