  • Patent number: 10599072
    Abstract: An interface receives a first digital signature of real-world data. A memory stores the first digital signature as seed data. The interface receives a second digital signature of real-world data. The memory stores the second digital signature as seed data. A processor generates first draw seed based, at least in part, on the seed data. The processor generates a first draw result based upon the first draw seed and a drawing algorithm. The interface receives a second draw result from a remote entity, the second draw result based, at least in part, on the first digital signature and the second digital signature. The processor determines whether the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement. Upon a determination that the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement, the interface communicates at least one of the first draw result and the second draw result.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10027487
    Abstract: A processor generates a first seed, wherein the first seed is a random number. The processor generates, a digital signature of the first seed. An interface communicates digital signature of the first seed to a first remote entity. The interface receives a digital signature of a second seed. After communicating the digital signature of the first seed to the first remote entity, the interface receives the second seed from the first remote entity. After receiving the digital signature of the second seed, the interface communicates the first seed to the first remote entity. The processor determines, using the digital signature of the second seed and the second seed, whether the second seed is valid. Upon a determination that the second seed is valid, the processor combines the first seed and the second seed to form a drawing seed. The processor generates a first draw result using the drawing seed and a drawing algorithm. The interface receives a second draw result from the first remote entity.
