ELECTRONIC GAME SYSTEMS AND METHODS WITH A DYNAMIC WHEEL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240242573 titled 'ELECTRONIC GAME SYSTEMS AND METHODS WITH A DYNAMIC WHEEL
The abstract describes an electronic gaming device with a dynamic wheel feature that provides different awards based on spins of the wheel.
- The device includes a display device for showing the game and a storage device with a weighted table for the wheel feature.
- A processor activates the wheel feature, displays the wheel with award sections, spins the wheel, and determines awards based on the weighted table.
- The initial spin provides an initial award value, and subsequent spins remove lower value sections from the wheel.
- The device then performs a second spin to provide a second award value higher than the initial value.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in casinos for electronic slot machines or other gaming devices. - It could also be integrated into mobile gaming apps for a virtual casino experience.
Problems Solved: - Provides a dynamic and interactive gaming experience for players. - Offers a random and fair way to determine awards in electronic games.
Benefits: - Enhances the entertainment value of electronic gaming devices. - Adds an element of chance and excitement to gameplay.
Commercial Applications: "Dynamic Wheel Feature for Electronic Gaming Devices: Enhancing Player Experience and Award Determination in Casinos and Mobile Apps"
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the weighted table affect the awards given in the game? 2. What are the advantages of using a dynamic wheel feature in electronic gaming devices?
Original Abstract Submitted
an electronic gaming device includes a display device configured to display an electronic game that includes a dynamic wheel feature, a storage device storing a weighted table for the dynamic wheel feature, a processor programmed to: activate the dynamic wheel feature including displaying a wheel where each wheel section identifies an award; display an initial spin of the wheel; provide an initial award value by identifying a first entry in the weighted table indicating an initial award value; remove wheel sections from the displayed wheel that have award values that are less than or equal to the initial award value; perform a second spin of the wheel; and provide a second award value by identifying a second entry in the weighted table based on the third random number and which has an associated award value that is greater than the initial award value.
