Abstract

An amusement machine of the 'pin ball' type is produced with a micro-processor based unit to provide control of the various modes of playing and to provide a range of displays. The unit allows the mechanical complexity of prior art devices to be simplified. The central processor operates together with an operating panel control, input-output memories and a general input-output unit. The total system provides 32 decimal character displays and can handle upto 64 power units, such as lamps and coils.
