There is provided a gaming machine capable of providing diverse type of image representation. The gaming machine 1 includes: a screen unit 10040 whose surface at least partially includes curved portions 10042; and a projector 10020 accommodated inside a casing 2, which is configured to project light to the screen unit 10040. Light projected by the projector 10020 is incident on a back surface side of the screen unit 10040 from the inside of the casing 2. The screen unit 10040 lets the light incident on the back surface side of the screen unit 10040 pass the screen unit 10040, thereby enabling displaying of an image on the front surface side of the screen unit 10040 positioned on the surface of the casing 2.

A handheld projector for visually defining an event zone on a grid mat of a tabletop game to obviate the need to manually make proximity calculations during game play to determine whether players indicated on a game board are located in sufficient proximity to a virtual event to be effected.

The present invention provides a drone-passing multiple detection sensor gate comprising: a gate having a ring-like structure through which a drone can pass during flight; a first sensor, disposed on the front or the inner front of the gate, for detecting whether the drone approaches the gate or passes through the front side of the gate; a second sensor, disposed on the inner rear of the gate, for detecting whether the drone sensed by the first sensor passes through the rear side of the gate; a detection signal transmitter, disposed inside or on a surface of the gate, for receiving, from the first sensor and the second sensor, the detection signal indicating whether the drone approaches or passes through the gate, and wirelessly transmitting the detection signal. In addition, the present invention provides a drone game system using a multiple detection sensor gate.

A processing apparatus includes a processing section acquiring a position in which a card is placed, and a rendering control section controlling projection of an image by a projection apparatus. On the basis of the position in which the card is placed, the rendering control section causes the projection apparatus to project the image associated with the card onto the card in a manner larger than the card. An image projecting method includes acquiring a position in which a card is placed, and on the basis of the position in which the card is placed, causing a projection apparatus to project an image associated with the card onto the card in a manner larger than the card.

A system, device and method for determining the position of objects comprising one or more furniture items and/or building structures having one or more sensors and a controller coupled to the sensors. The sensors detect when one or more objects having at least one sensor tag are positioned proximate one of the sensors and transmit a signal to the controller including an identifier of the object and the sensor that detected the objects. As a result, the controller is able to track the position of the objects in relation to the furniture and/or building structures preventing the items from being lost and increasing efficiency when looking for misplaced objects.

An arcade game with that allows a player to control the game using a video feedback plus a tactile response is provided. A player must use the video feed for controlling the game, and the video feed can be transmitted from a remote location. The video signal can be transmitted via the internet, a wireless connection, or a wired connection.

An embodiment of an interactive play apparatus may include a camera to capture a projected image, an image recognizer communicatively coupled to the camera to recognize the captured projection image, and a projection responder communicatively coupled to the image recognizer to respond to the recognized projection image. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
