Description

The essence of the lottery game is that to carry out the following operations: in random order on selected sections of the media distributed on its surface in such a way as to form a matrix of rows and columns, place game parts, each of which is a substrate, bearing a hidden image, from the moment the game begins, the participant who wishes to take part in the game generates a message about the selected areas of the carrier, which, in his opinion, contain images that are predefined by by the game’s initiator as winning, sends a signal from the user’s terminal to the central station that carries information identifying the sender and the message compiled by him, the information contained in the received signal is stored on the receiving side, after the time period set for the game has passed, the game organizer ends the reception signals from the participants, affect the game parts in such a way that previously hidden images become visible on their substrates, for each participant the images are compared, they yuschiesya on substrates game pieces placed on these selected sites with their winning images.

In addition, a word, number (number), icon, logo, picture, message, image or some other information is used as a latent image.

When conducting a lottery game, a lottery card is used, the possible options of which are presented in the drawings.

FIG. 1 - lottery card for playing games in public places;

FIG. 2 - a lottery card in which digital information methods are used;

FIG. 3 is a functional diagram for conducting a game.

According to FIG. 1, the lottery card contains a carrier, which is a scoreboard 1, on the surface of which sections 2 are allocated, which are distributed in such a way that they form a matrix of rows A, B, C, etc. and columns 1, 2, 3, etc. The lottery card also contains game parts 3, the number of which is equal to the number of allocated sections 2.

According to FIG. 2, the lottery card contains a carrier, which is a plasma panel 4 connected to a processor 5 connected to a transceiver unit 6.

According to FIG. 3 lottery games are played using terminals of 7 users, which, depending on the type of terminal used, are connected to the corresponding telecommunication channels

- 1 009864 communication lines (Internet, cellular, telephone, etc.) send messages to the central station 8, as well as receive messages sent from the central station 8. Received messages are stored in the memory unit 9 of the central station 8 and upon completion of the game time are transmitted for processing to the computer 10. The Central station 8 receives, processes and transmits signals through the transceiver part 11.

One of the preferred options for holding a lottery game is to hold it in the stadium during a football match. A scoreboard 1 representing the carrier is placed in the stadium for general viewing, on the surface of the scoreboard 1 sections 2 are allocated that are distributed in such a way that they form a matrix of rows A, B, C, D, D and E and columns 1, 2, 3 , 4, 5 and 6. These sections are highlighted in dotted form, forming a closed loop, in the case when the fastening of the game parts 3 to the surface of the scoreboard 1 is carried out by means of magnets. Or these sections 2 are highlighted by various elements to hold the game parts 3 on the vertical surface of the scoreboard 1. The game parts 3 are a substrate carrying a latent image. The number of game parts 3 is equal to the number of sections 2, namely 36. Currently, there are numerous ways to create a substrate that carries a latent image (image). All these methods can be used to create the game part 3 with a hidden image (image). The latent image (image) is present on the substrate and can be read (perceived) after the coating is removed, after peeling off or scraping, or chemical processing of the image on the substrate, or when the substrate is exposed to temperature or light exposure. Before the start of the draw, the lottery organizer announces the rules of the game, on the basis of which winners who receive raffled prizes are identified.

Before the start of the match, the players of both football teams alternately install their chosen game part 3 on any free section 2 of the scoreboard 1. This operation continues until the game parts 3 are placed on all sections 2. Before the start of the game, the lottery organizer informs the players which numbers or letters must be guessed, for example, numbers 6, 8, 15, 23, 29, 35. Each participant who wishes to participate in the lottery forms a message in which he indicates the numbers of rows and columns on which, in his opinion, are placed game parts 3 with the reported numbers and which correspond to the winning numbers. Those. the participant in his message indicates, for example, such numbers of rows and columns A2, B4, B2, G5, G6, E3, on which the game parts 3 with the numbers 6, 8, 15, 23, 29, 35 are placed. In the case when broadcasting the match on radio and / or television, the number of participants expands many times. One of the many possible examples of message delivery is a fixed or mobile delivery system using the 8M8 short message service. The referee's whistle means the start of a football match, as well as the start of a lottery game. The referee's final whistle means the end of a football match, as well as the end of a lottery game. In the period from the beginning of the game to its end, the participant who wishes to take part in the lottery sends a prepared message from his terminal 7 to the central station 8, which is presented either by a mobile operator or a content provider. All incoming information is entered into the memory unit 9, the database of which stores information regarding the estimated winning numbers, and the corresponding identifiers, which are used as the phone numbers of the senders of messages.

At the end of the game, the central station 8 stops receiving messages.

At the command of the organizer of the lottery game, an operation is performed on the game parts 3, namely, either the protective layer is removed or scraped off, the surface is chemically treated, the game parts 3 are exposed to temperature effects, or they are irradiated in the required frequency range as a result of the corresponding exposure images appear on the substrates of the game parts 3. In the calculator 10 of the central station 8, enter the number of each section 2, that is, the row and column corresponding to it and that number or kvu, which is depicted on the substrate of the gaming part 3, placed on this site. Information stored in the memory unit 9 and relating to the numbers of the selected sections 2 selected by each participant is also entered into the calculator 10 of the central station 8; The calculator 10 performs sorting by comparing a series of numbers available on the substrates of the game parts 3 located on the selected sections 2 selected by the participant with the winning ones numbers. If they coincide, the player becomes the winner. So, if in the message received from the player, as described above, the allocated sections 2 are indicated with the numbers of rows and columns A1, B4, B2, G5, G6, E3, and the game parts 3 located in these allocated sections 2 contain the numbers 6 , 8, 15, 23, 29, 35 in any arbitrary order, i.e. if it is not necessary that the number 6 was exactly on the game part 3, located on this allocated section 2 with the row number and column A2, as well as other winning numbers, then he becomes the owner of the prize.

In the case when the scoreboard 1 of the lottery card is a plasma panel 4, then the game parts 3 are located on its screen so that their images were hidden. The player of the team by clicking moves the selected game part 3 to a free allocated area of the plasma panel 4. At the end of the game, the central station 8 stops receiving messages. From the central station 8, a signal is provided that carries information about the opening of the game parts 3, which enters the unit

- 009864 transceivers 6 and after processing to the processor 5. In the processor 5, a virtual representation of the image of each game part 3 is displayed, which is displayed on the scoreboard 1. The processor 5 generates a message containing information about the number of each section 2, i.e. a row and a column corresponding to it and that number or letter, which is depicted on the substrate of the game part 3, placed on this site.

This message is received in the transceiver unit 6. After processing in the transceiver unit 6, the signal is transmitted to the transceiver part 11 of the central station 8 and then the information is transmitted to the calculator 10. The information stored in the memory unit 9 and concerning the numbers allocated by each participant is also loaded into the calculator 10 sections 2. The calculator 10 performs sorting by comparing a number of numbers available on the selected sections 2 indicated by the participant with winning numbers. If they coincide, the player becomes the winner.

Each of the participants in the game, located in the stadium, at the radio, television, upon completion of the surface treatment of the gaming parts 3 can evaluate the result of their game.
