Abstract: In one aspect, an improved craps system may comprise at least one camera and a dealer station having at least one dealer station memory, at least one dealer station display device, and at least one dealer station processor in communication with the at least one camera. The at least one dealer station processor may be configured to receive the information from the camera regarding the throw of dice and determine, based upon the information, whether the throw complies with one or more requirements for a proper throw of dice.

Abstract: Gaming devices, gaming systems, gaming device display systems and methods for providing enhanced lighting features in gaming devices and systems are provided. In one example, a front or player-facing flexible LED light strip is positioned to follow a curved contour portion of a video display device. A diffuser may be positioned to cover the flexible LED light strip. The flexible LED light strip may be positioned on a display frame attached to the video display device and the display frame may include a curved contour portion that conforms to the curved contour portion of the display device.

Abstract: A gaming machine includes a casing accommodating therein one or more display devices and a control board configured to control a game, wherein on the control board, one or more display port terminals each used for connecting the one or more display devices is mounted.

Abstract: A gaming machine includes a motherboard unit having a substrate on which a semiconductor device is mounted, the semiconductor device being a single package sealing therein a main processor having a CPU function for executing a game processing and sub processor capable of executing video processing, wherein the motherboard unit is connected to a power supply unit, the main processor and the sub processor are connected to each other via a bus of a certain communication protocol, and the main processor, at a time of powering on by the power supply unit, preferentially activates the sub processor as a GPU for executing graphics processing which is a part of the game processing, before a connection destination of a bus of a communication protocol other than the certain communication protocol.

Abstract: A roulette gaming machine comprises a roulette board, a ball, a rotatable portion, ball receiving parts, numerals, a driving motor and a main control CPU. The rotatable portion is rotatably provided at a center portion of the roulette board. The ball receiving parts receives the ball and circularly arranged on an inner periphery side of the rotatable portion. The numerals are circularly arranged on an outer periphery side of the rotatable portion so as to be opposed to the ball receiving parts respectively. The driving motor rotates the rotatable portion in a certain direction. The main control CPU selects a drive control pattern. The main control CPU varies a constant speed rotation period for rotating the rotatable portion at a certain rotation speed according to the drive control pattern, and controls the driving unit according to the constant speed rotation period and the certain rotation speed.

Abstract: In a store where a plurality of gaming machines which are manufactured by different game makers are installed, the present invention provides a communication unit which can construct a system which allows the store to grasp a sales amount in real time and, at the same time, can allow the store side to arbitrarily select the construction or the non-construction of the system depending on the size of the store or the like. The communication system can also reduce a constructing cost and a running cost of the system. In the communication unit which is connectable to the gaming machines and a server which manages a store in which the gaming machines are installed through a communication line, when coins which are inserted in the gaming machine are detected by the gaming machine or value information is read from a prepaid card, the sales information are cumulatively added and are stored upon receiving signals outputted from the gaming machine, and the stored sales information are transmitted to the server.
