Abstract

EL SISTEMA DE JUEGO DISTRIBUIDO PROPORCIONA A UN USUARIO EL JUEGO DESDE UNA POSICION REMOTA, POR EJEMPLO, DESDE EL INTERIOR DE UNA HABITACION DEL HOTEL. UTILIZANDO LA TELEVISION DEL HOTEL Y UN CONTROL REMOTO, EL USUARIO, TAL COMO UN HUESPED DEL HOTEL, PUEDE PRACTICAR LOS JUEGOS DE FORMA SIMILAR A LOS QUE ESTAN DISPONIBLES EN UN TERMINAL DE LA LOTERIA DE VIDEO. LOS JUEGOS SE VISUALIZAN EN UNA TV, A TRAVES DEL USO DE UNA CAJA PROVISTA DEL DISPOSITIVO DE CABECERA DE LA TV. LA CAJA CON EL DISPOSITIVO DE CABECERA CONECTA LA TV A UNA RED DE SISTEMAS DE ORDENADORES, A TRAVES DE LOS CUALES SE DISTRIBUYE Y SE GESTIONA EL SISTEMA DE JUEGO. EL ACCESO AL JUEGO SE OBTIENE UTILIZANDO UN DISPOSITIVO DE RANURAS DE PAGO. UNA CARACTERISTICA ESPECIAL DEL SISTEMA SON LOS PREMIOS GORDOS PROGRESIVOS QUE ESTAN DISPONIBLES PARA LOS JUGADORES DEL JUEGO; ESTOS PREMIOS GORDOS ESTAN EN EL HOTEL, EN LA JURISDICCION, Y EN LOS NIVELES GLOBALES.THE DISTRIBUTED GAME SYSTEM PROVIDES GAME FROM A REMOTE POSITION TO A USER, FOR EXAMPLE, FROM INSIDE A HOTEL ROOM. USING THE TELEVISION OF THE HOTEL AND A REMOTE CONTROL, THE USER, SUCH AS A GUEST OF THE HOTEL, CAN PRACTICE THE GAMES IN THE SAME WAY AS THOSE AVAILABLE IN A TERMINAL OF THE VIDEO LOTTERY. THE GAMES ARE DISPLAYED ON A TV, THROUGH THE USE OF A BOX PROVIDED WITH THE TV HEADER DEVICE. THE BOX WITH THE HEADER DEVICE CONNECTS THE TV TO A NETWORK OF COMPUTER SYSTEMS, THROUGH WHICH THE GAME SYSTEM IS DISTRIBUTED AND MANAGED. ACCESS TO THE GAME IS OBTAINED USING A PAYMENT SLOT DEVICE. A SPECIAL FEATURE OF THE SYSTEM IS THE PROGRESSIVE FAT AWARDS AVAILABLE TO PLAYERS OF THE GAME; THESE BIG PRIZES ARE IN THE HOTEL, IN THE JURISDICTION, AND ON THE GLOBAL LEVELS.
