Board game system and method
A board game system comprises a game board, having a surface adapted to receive a board game overlay, a detector array adapted to detect the respective positions of a plurality of game pieces placed on top of the board game overlay, and a transmitter adapted to transmit data indicating the respective positions to an entertainment device; and an entertainment device, having a receiver adapted to receive from the game board data indicating the respective positions of the plurality of game pieces, a game state analyser operable to update the state of a game in dependence upon the indicated respective positions of the plurality of game pieces, and an image generator operable to generate an image for output to a display, the content of the image being responsive to the detected state of the game.
ROULETTE RIM TILT DETECTION
A tilt detection system including a roulette wheel, at least one inclination sensor positioned on or within a rim of the roulette wheel, and a display module comprising a plurality of light outputs. The tilt detection system can obtain positional data during operation of the roulette wheel and determine tilt data indicative of the roulette wheel's position relative to a baseline indicative of a leveled state. A roulette wheel tilt status, e.g., level, warning, and error, may be determined based on the tilt data, and a display module can activate the plurality of light outputs based on the tilt status. Two or more stepper motors may lever the roulette wheel in response to the tilt status.

A roulette wheel tilt status, e.g., level, warning, and error, may be determined based on the tilt data, and a display module can activate the plurality of light outputs based on the tilt status. Two or more stepper motors may lever the roulette wheel in response to the tilt status.
Smart cube
A smart cube is disclosed. An embodiment of the present disclosure may provide a smart cube, comprising: a main frame; and a plurality of unit blocks coupled to the main frame and constituting six faces of a regular hexahedron, wherein the unit block comprises: a display unit disposed on a surface of the unit block that is exposed to an outside; and a plurality of terminals disposed on a facing surface of the unit block facing another unit block for transferring electric power and data for the display unit, wherein the terminal is retrievably disposed in an insertion hole formed on the facing surface of the unit block, and wherein the terminal includes a permanent magnet for allowing a polarity of a retrieved end of the terminal to be opposite to a polarity of a retrieved end of a terminal of the other unit block such that the terminal is retrieved from the insertion hole and adhered to the terminal of the other unit block by a magnetic force.
