Described is a system and method for generating a unique signature for a space. During operation, the system causes a mobile platform to make one or more passes through the space along a repeatable path. While moving through the space, the system captures an image of the space around the mobile platform. A filter is applied to the image to generate vertical bins, the vertical bins being one-dimensional vectors of the space around the mobile platform. The one-dimensional vectors are combined over time to create a two-dimensional trace, with the two-dimensional trace being a unique signature for the space.

Systems and methods for generating a memory puzzle are provided. In one aspect, a memory puzzle system receives a selection of puzzle parameters via a first user interface. The memory puzzle system can obtain a plurality of media files associated with the puzzle parameters, and determine an order in which to play the plurality of media files. The memory puzzle system can also generate user interface data that, when rendered, causes a client system to display a second user interface that plays the plurality of media files in the determined order. The memory puzzle system can obtain thumbnails associated with the plurality of media files that are displayed in the second user interface after playback of the plurality of media files is complete. The memory puzzle system can receive an ordered selection of the thumbnails, and generate a score based at least partly on the ordered selection of the thumbnails.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for performing a work-driven game are described. An indication of a completion of a performance of a work event is obtained from a work processing system, the work event contributing to a production of a work product. A completion of a performance of an exercise event is obtained from an exercise machine. A combined value of the work event and the exercise event is determined and a gaming asset associated with the work-driven game is awarded in a game processing system in response to the indication of the completion of the performance of the work event and the completion of the performance of the exercise event, the gaming asset awarded being based on the combined value.

Navigation systems and associated methods for providing navigation services are provided. Information associated with a desired route for a vehicle, such as a route between a current location and a desired destination, may be determined. Additionally, contextual information associated with the vehicle may be identified. Based upon the desired route and the contextual information, a direction may be generated for presentation to one or more users, and the generated direction may be output for presentation.

A game necessitates the active participation of all players demanding that each of the team members effectively communicate with each of their teammates in such a way that winning can only be realized by working together. By providing particular game cards to game players, and a timer to encourage fast thinking and interaction, the players may solve a puzzle using team work and efficient communication skills.

A skills game includes at least a trackable drawing device and an electronic device. The trackable drawing device includes one or more illumination sources configured to illuminate an illumination area of the trackable drawing device. The electronic device is configured to track a location of the illumination area when the illumination area is illuminated a specific frequency by the one or more illumination sources. The electronic device also generates a drawing on a display of the electronic device based on tracking of the location.

A method for a game to be played by a team of players including offering the team of players a first challenge, the team of players having the ability to accrue time in the first challenge, and offering the team of players a final challenge, the time allocated for completing the final challenge including at least any time accrued by the team of players in the first challenge.

A method and a system for providing an online quiz game service where participants input answers using their quiz terminals with respect to multiple correct answers to a single quiz question, and the corresponding answer is transferred to a quiz server, the quiz serve receives the answer and judges whether the quiz answer satisfies a specific non-published correct answer among the plurality of correct answers. When the answer does not satisfy any correct answers, the answer is judged as an incorrect answer. Also, when it receives the correct answer judgment at more than a predetermined number of times, the specific correct answer is published.

The application provides for a system and method of playing an educational balancing game. An electronic game spinner is used to select a category to be tested, as well as a specific question within this category. Once the specific question has been selected, potential answers are shown on an electronic game board whereby a user must then use their body to select a circle containing an answer. The game board may also be constructed out of plastic, where the answers are fixed, however, the electronic game spinner scans a code on the game board so that appropriate questions are used with the printed answer selections.

There is provided an information processing device to set a condition indicating a relation of a plurality of users and control an operation according to a manipulation performed by each user on the basis of the condition, the information processing device including: an acquiring unit configured to acquire a detection result of information related to a manipulator for each of a plurality of manipulators placed in a predetermined region; and a generating unit configured to generate attribute information for controlling an operation based on a manipulation performed by each of the plurality of manipulators on a basis of the detection result.
