ADVERTISING ONLINE BETWEEN FREE-PLAY NUMBER GAMES
The current invention's web site displays a 30-second-long advertisement every minute of the day. The remaining seconds in each minute are used to display four-digit videos of winning numbers being randomly generated for online number-matching games. The games are free to play and award valuable prizes. For each game, the digits of the winning numbers are created by randomly selecting and sequentially displaying four videos of ten balls being mixed in a transparent chamber for about seven seconds each. One ball randomly separates itself from the others. Each ball is marked with a different digit. The videos are randomly selected from a pool of 100 different pre-recorded videos of digits being randomly generated. Each digit in said pool was randomly generated ten times. The bottom ramp of the mixing chamber vibrates to prevent balls from jamming. Play is limited to one game per day unless players click on ads.
ROLLING OBJECT DELIVERY SYSTEM, DEVICE, AND METHOD FOR LEVITATION
A delivery system and method for levitation is disclosed. The delivery system includes an inlet trough; a queue aligned with the inlet trough; a blocker conduit aligned with the queue; a first blocker and a second blocker, each having an extension through the blocker conduit for selectively permitting passage through the blocker conduit, the extension of the first blocker spaced laterally along the blocker conduit from the extension of the second blocker; an exhaust conduit having an exhaust conduit receiver opening and an exhaust conduit exit opening, the exhaust conduit receiver opening aligned with a blocker conduit exit opening of the blocker conduit; and a force generator positioned near the base end and below the exhaust conduit receiver opening. A rolling object can exit through the exhaust conduit exit opening and levitate above the exhaust conduit exit opening. The delivery system can include a speed reducer.
Fast Money Bingo
An improved bingo method and apparatus with a plurality of bingo balls numbered from 1 to 40. The plurality of bonus balls has various bonus values and each player has the capacity to place an individualized wager against a wagering establishment. A caller announces the start of the game and the value of a plurality of bonus balls, calls the bingo balls and bonus balls drawn from a random ball generator and announces the outcome of the game after a maximum of 21 spins of the random ball generator. Additional features include the possibility of a peer-to-peer wagering system where each player places identical wagers, plays against the set pool of entry fees and the house retains a percentage of the pot. The game further features a convenient table arrangement that can be played on the main floor of a wagering establishment or a large wagering room.
Random digit generator featuring differently colored balls
The current invention is an improvement to the random number generator described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,088,737. Random digits are generated by mixing ten differently colored balls in a transparent chamber. The entire surfaces of all the balls are uniformly colored and unmarked. None of the balls contains any electronic identification devices. A color sensor mounted near the settlement pocket of the mixing chamber emits data that is unique for each ball. A miniature computer and novel software correlate the data emitted for each of the ten balls with a different digit. One of the balls is randomly separated from the others and comes to rest near the color sensor without human intervention. The computer and its software record the digit that is correlated with the randomly separated ball and command a mini-projector to display the digit on the ball's surface in an upright position.
Self-turning device with the ability to mix and identify balls, located in a portable compartment with auxiliary control elements
The present invention relates to a self-turning device with the ability to mix and identify balls located in a portable compartment with auxiliary control elements. The device is presented as a whole as a small portable stand-alone device with the ability to perform random drawings. The invention is therefore in the field of devices intended for games of chance and arcade games, such as lotteries, bingo, roulettes, board games, etc.
Ball delivery device, system, and method
A ball delivery device, system, and method housing a plurality of balls for a game session is presented. The ball delivery device includes a mixing chamber, at least one instruction to start the game session, an identifier, at least one arm, a ball holder, a reader and a tube. The mixing chamber receives the balls for the game session. After receiving an instruction to begin the game session, balls are singly drawn from the mixing chamber. The identifier disposed on each ball uniquely identifies each ball. The arm mixes the balls in the mixing chamber. The ball holder disposed on the arm holds a single ball that is randomly selected from the mixing chamber. The reader reads the identifier of the ball selected by the ball holder. The tube receives each selected ball and holds the selected balls after the identifier reads the ball and until completion of the game session.
Casino style game of chance apparatus
A random number generator for a game of chance capable of selecting at least two numbers which are relevant to an outcome of the game of chance, includes a blower, a first mixing chamber housing a first set of balls bearing indicia in accordance with rules of the game of chance and a second mixing chamber housing a second set of balls bearing indicia in accordance with rules of the game of chance. The first mixing chamber is in communication with a first selector including a first calling chamber. The second mixing chamber is in communication with a second selector including a second calling chamber. A first valve has a closed position and an open position. In the open position of the first valve, the first selected ball is allowed to pass from the first mixing chamber to the first calling chamber. A second valve has a closed position and an open position. In the closed position of the second valve, the second selected ball is allowed to pass from the second mixing chamber to the second calling chamber.
Illusion machine
The present disclosure relates to an ensemble comprising four distinct modules and focuses on the illusionist market. It is an illusion machine that creates the illusion of randomness, when it is actually a deterministic event. The first module includes an element that is in fact a set of elements (spheres or the like) and comprises elements printed in 3D, or by another form of production. The second module consists of an element very similar to the first one, with the difference that it comprises a magnetic core (or any material allowing a similar effect). The ensemble also comprises a third module, a ball globe that should not be completely made of ferromagnetic metal. The fourth module is the trap for the elements. In the proposed device, a trap is used, which is also printed as an integer object, without the need for joint welds, with a built-in magnet.
Ball delivery device, system, and method
A ball delivery device, system, and method housing a plurality of balls for a game session is presented. The ball delivery device includes a mixing chamber that receives the plurality of balls for the game session, a mixing arm (or arms) that mixes the plurality of balls within the mixing chamber during the game session, a ball holder disposed on the arm, wherein the ball holder captures a single ball from the mixing chamber during the game session and deposits the ball on a reading platform, an agitator mechanically coupled to the reading platform, wherein the agitator induces a vibration in the reading platform, a reader that scans an identifier printed on the ball as the ball rotates on the vibrating reading platform, and a camera that captures an image of the ball.
LOTTERY NUMBER GENERATING ASSEMBLY
A lottery number generating assembly includes a housing, a control circuit positioned within the housing and a random number generator positioned within the housing. The random number generator randomly selects five numbers each ranging between 1 and 99 when the random number generator is turned on to randomly select numbers for playing power ball lottery or mega ball lottery. A plurality of touch screens is each coupled to the housing and each of the touch screens is electrically coupled to the control circuit. Each of the touch screens displays indicia comprising a respective one of the randomly selected numbers to display the randomly selected numbers for a user to play the power ball lottery or the mega ball lottery.
