Description
技术领域
本发明主要涉及投币式(coin-operated)视频娱乐系统。更确切地说,本发明的方面提供对可以进行视频游戏以及接入其它娱乐形式的便携投币式互动娱乐装置的控制接入(access)的方法和系统。
背景技术
投币式视频游戏装置在餐厅和酒吧中变得非常普遍。投币式视频游戏装置是大型装置或者固定(be secured to)在桌子或者其它固定物体上的装置。一名或多名游戏者可以使用投币式视频游戏装置进行益智游戏(trivia games)、纸牌游戏(card games)或者其它普通的游戏。由于这样的装置的价格,而将它们设计成固定的用以防盗。在其它缺点中,由于用户需要在装置的固定位置进行游戏,而该位置并没有必要处于收益最大的最好游戏位置,所以趋向于没有充分利用固定投币式视频游戏装置。该大型装置还由于所处位置的被限制的空间而在接受上受到限制。
一些餐厅和酒吧分布着非投币式便携通信装置,设置这些装置用以允许用户进行益智和纸牌游戏。由于装置是便携的,需要考虑被盗的风险。为了减小被盗的损失,将此类装置设计成便宜的,并具有被限制的处理和显示功能。该被限制的处理和显示功能导致用户的体验变得不理想。
因此,在本领域中需要便携投币式视频娱乐系统,用以当控制便携组件的接入时提供丰富的多媒体体验。
发明内容
本发明的方面通过提供便携投币式互动娱乐游戏系统和方法,克服了现有技术的问题和限制。
便携互动娱乐装置可以包括触摸屏或者其它输入装置,并允许用户进行视频游戏、接入其它娱乐形式以及接入连接到局域网或广域网的数据和/或装置。在不同的实施例中,将便携互动娱乐装置可移动地固定在一个或多个支架(stands)上。设置每一个便携互动娱乐装置和/或中央塔(central tower)用以接收付款。付款可以是货币信用卡、借记卡或其它形式的付款。便携互动娱乐装置可以变成未固定在支架上的(unsecured from stands)以响应收到付款,或由特定区域的雇员远程控制操作的。
本发明提供一种投币式便携互动娱乐装置,包括:付款模块,设置用以从用户接受付款;以及锁紧模块,可移动地将该便携互动娱乐装置固定在支架上。
本发明提供一种便携投币式游戏系统,包括:至少一个便携互动娱乐装置;至少一个支架,配置成将至少一个便携互动娱乐装置可移动地固定在该至少一个支架上;以及中央塔,连接到该至少一个支架,以及配置成接收付款以及使该至少一个便携互动娱乐装置不固定在该至少一个支架上。
本发明提供一种计算机可读介质,包括引起便携投币式游戏系统执行各步骤的计算机可执行指令,包括:(a)从用户接受信用卡付款;以及(b)响应便携互动娱乐装置不固定在支架上。
本发明提供一种便携投币式娱乐系统,包括:至少一个便携互动娱乐装置;以及中央塔,设置用以接收付款并激活该至少一个便携互动娱乐系统。
在不同实施例中,设置便携互动娱乐装置用以允许用户听音乐、打赌、点餐、接入互联网、播放电影、看电视、发信息和个人广告、参与比赛、订货、打电话、看广告以及接入或者参与其它娱乐形式。
为了执行一个或多个被公开的方法,本发明的一些实施例可以包括或使用计算机可执行指令。该计算机可执行指令可以存储在计算机可读介质中,例如便携存储驱动器或者光盘。

具体实施方式
本发明的不同实施例可以通过交换和处理数据的计算机装置和系统实现。在图1中说明了示例性的便携互动娱乐装置100的元件。便携互动娱乐装置100包括可以控制装置的全部操作的中央处理器102,以及连接中央处理器102和下面所描述元件的系统互联(inter-connect)总线112。可以通过一组或多组不同的传统总线结构来实现系统互联总线112。在一些实施例中,互联总线112由几组分离的总线实现。
便携互动娱乐装置100可以包括不同的接口单元和驱动器用以读写数据或文件。特别是,便携互动娱乐装置100包括大容量(mass)存储接口114,将硬盘驱动器116连接到系统互联总线112。硬盘通常包括一个或多个向计算机可读介质写入时将位转换成磁脉冲、以及从计算机可读介质读取数据时将磁脉冲转换成位的读/写头。仅为了图示的目的显示了单硬盘驱动器116,应当理解的是在便携互动娱乐装置100中可以包括多个这样的驱动器。此外便携互动娱乐装置100可以包括诸如磁光驱动器(magneto-optical drive)的接入其它类型计算机可读介质的驱动器。
不像硬盘驱动器、例如系统存储器124的系统存储器一般通过电子的方式读取和写入数据而不包括读/写头。系统存储器124可以通过具有存储基本输入输出系统(BIOS)的只读存储器部分和存储其它数据和文件的随机存储器(RAM)的传统的系统存储器实现。
用户可以用多种输入设备与便携互动娱乐装置100互动。图1显示了可以连接键盘、指示装置(pointing device)或其它组件的输入/输出接口126。输入/输出接口126可以通过USB、串行接口或者其它类型接口实现。也可以将用户控制接口152连接到用户控制154。
便携互动娱乐装置100可以包括将外围设备连接到系统互联总线112的附加接口。可以附加地或可选地使用IEEE1394接口以将附加设备连接到便携互动娱乐装置100。外围设备可以包括触摸感应屏、游戏手柄(game pad)、扫描仪、打印机和其它输入和输出设备,并可以通过并行端口、游戏端口、PCI板卡(PCI board)或其它用于将外围设备连接到计算机的接口,将这些设备连接到系统互联总线112上。
便携互动娱乐装置100还可以包括将显示装置连接到系统互联总线112的视频适配器130。在图1的实施例中,使用用户显示装置132。该显示装置可以包括阴极射线管(CRT),液晶显示器(LCD),场发射显示器(FED),等离子显示器或者任何其它可以产生用户可视图像的装置。用户显示装置132也可以通过触摸屏显示器实现。声音可以通过话筒134和扬声器136记录和再现。声音接口138可以用于将话筒134和扬声器136连接到系统互联总线112。
本领域技术人员可以理解图1中所示的装置连接仅是用于说明的目的,外围设备中的一些可以通过选择性的接口耦合到系统(互联)总线112。
便携互动娱乐装置100包括将便携互动娱乐装置100连接到局域网(LAN)或例如互联网的广域网(WAN)的网络接口140。无线接口142可以用于连接到LAN或WAN。可以设置无线接口142通过WiFi网络、红外远程控制和/或射频远程控制来通信。
可以通过存储在计算机可读介质上的计算机可执行指令来操作便携互动娱乐装置100。例如,便携互动娱乐装置100可以包括向服务器发送信息、从服务器接收信息、在用户显示装置132上显示接收到的信息的计算机可执行指令。
便携互动娱乐装置100可以包括锁紧(locking)接口144。如下文中的详细描述,本发明的实施例包括可以可移动地固定在支架上的便携互动娱乐系统装置。例如,图2显示了可移动地固定在支架202上的便携互动娱乐装置200。锁紧针204安装在便携互动娱乐装置200上,从而锁紧针204可以在箭头206所示的方向移动。当锁紧时,便携互动娱乐装置200接触支架202的前表面208,以及锁紧针204伸入支架202的上表面210。当付款模块146接收到信用卡付款,通过将锁紧针204移动离开支架202的上表面210,可以解锁便携互动娱乐装置200。付款模块146可以包括信用卡读卡机、验钞机或其它接收客户付款的机构。可以设置付款模块146发送信号到锁紧模块144用以引起锁紧针204移动。锁紧接口144也可以控制锁紧针204的位置,以响应从无线接口142接收的信号。例如,无线接口142可以接收红外或射频信号以确定便携互动娱乐装置200是否固定或未固定在支架202上。在一个执行中,可以用远程控制从支架上释放便携互动娱乐装置。
可以通过弹簧和电磁的组合来控制锁紧针204的位置。可以将这样的组件结合到锁紧模块148(如图1所示)。本领域技术人员将了解在选择性的实施例中可以使用两个或多个的锁紧针将便携互动娱乐装置200固定在支架202上。此外,将便携装置可移动地固定在固定物体上的传统机构也可以被采用。
便携互动娱乐装置200和支架202可以位于例如酒吧和餐厅的营业场所。可以设置便携互动娱乐装置200允许用户,例如客户进行视频游戏、访问菜单、发送和接收电子邮件、接入本地局域网(LAN),接入广域网(WAN),付帐单以及执行其它通常通过计算机装置执行的功能。
便携互动娱乐装置200还可以包括当用户试图从场所中移动装置时用于确定的传感器或标签。例如便携互动娱乐装置200可以包括导致读取系统发出警报的射频身份(RFID)标签,当用户试图将装置转移出门时发出警报。安全接口150(图1中所示)可以周期地向外部设备发送和/或从外部设备接收信号,以确定便携互动娱乐装置200在预定区域中。当发生违反安全时,可以设置便携互动娱乐装置200关闭。在一些实施例中,装置只有在放置在支架上时才重新启动。也可以设置便携互动娱乐装置200,用以当装置离开预定区域时拍摄照片并传输该照片到支架。
图3显示了锁定在支架202时,便携互动娱乐装置200的视图。便携互动娱乐装置200可以包括,当进行视频游戏或与图形用户接口互动时使用的游戏控制302和304。当固定到支架202时,可以设置便携互动娱乐装置200显示广告,例如广告306。广告可以在本地或者通过广域网,例如互联网加载。在一个实施例中,便携互动娱乐装置的组可以连接到本地局域网并显示同一类的(coordinated)广告。当然也可以显示例如视频游戏试玩版、电影预告片等其它视频和/或音频内容。
图4说明了根据本发明的实施例的便携投币式游戏系统。本领域技术人员将了解“投币式”包括通过纸币或硬币操作的装置,也包括通过信用卡、借记卡或用于为操作该装置而付款的其他装置。图4显示系统包括中央塔402和两个便携互动娱乐装置404和406。中央塔402可以通过包括处理器、存储器和其它传统计算机组件的计算机装置实现。便携互动娱乐装置404和406可以包括触摸屏和低功率处理器。
图4显示的系统可以包括附加的便携互动娱乐装置。便携互动娱乐装置404和406可以与图2中显示的便携互动娱乐装置200相似。每一个便携互动娱乐装置可以可移动地固定在诸如支架412和414的支架上。
中央塔402可以包括用于从用户接收现金的验钞机408。中央塔402可以附加地和可选地包括设置用以从信用卡和/或借记卡接收付款的信用卡读卡机410。还可以设置信用卡读卡机410从具有磁条的塑料卡上读取广告数据。在一个实施例中,磁条包括广告数据。在另一个实施例中,磁条包括例如互联网址的网络地址,或者其它识别广告位置的指示。
可以设置验钞机408和信用卡读卡机410用于提供将导致便携互动娱乐装置404和406从支架412和414上释放的信号。在一个实施例中,将支架412和414集成为单结构。支架412和414也可以附加在中央塔402上。
中央塔402可以包括存储不同视频游戏的游戏集合(collection)416。在一个实施例中,根据用户的请求,游戏可以从游戏集合416中找回并传输到便携互动娱乐装置404和406。该请求可以包括用户为进行游戏的付款。可以设置中央塔402作为使用便携互动娱乐装置404和406的用户进行的游戏的主机。例如可以设置中央塔402和便携互动娱乐装置404和406为客户端服务器结构,以使中央塔402处理游戏数据,并在中央塔402和便携互动娱乐装置404和406之间交换数据。
可以包括网络接口卡418以允许中央塔402连接到局域网420和广域网,例如互联网422。可以包括无线通信模块424以允许中央塔402和局域网420和互联网422通信。在一个实施例中,一个附加的中央塔,例如中央塔434也可以连接到互联网422或另一个广域网(WAN)或局域网(LAN)。连接到附加的中央塔允许便携互动娱乐装置404和406的用户进行游戏,参与比赛以及和位于例如其它的餐厅或者酒吧的其它位置的用户通信,。在一些实施例中,便携互动娱乐装置可用以观看其它登陆的或接近者的身份。用户也可以使用便携互动娱乐装置来交换视频游戏积分(credits)。例如,当第一用户在视频游戏上输给第二用户时,使用便携互动娱乐装置的第一用户可以给使用另一个便携互动娱乐装置的第二用户发送积分。
也可以设置便携互动娱乐装置404和406在对等网络(peer-to-peer)环境中通信。例如便携互动娱乐装置404和406也可用以进行游戏、交换即时信息或交换其它类型的数据。便携互动娱乐装置404和406之间的通信路径可以是无线的或有线的。在一个实施例中,设置便携互动娱乐装置404和406通过无线的访问点426与LAN 420通信。
图4所示系统可以包括不同的附加的硬件组件,可由中央塔402和/或便携互动娱乐装置404和406使用。例如,中央塔402上可以附带监视器428。监视器428可以显示视频游戏数据,从而便携互动娱乐装置404和406的用户可以在中央监视器上观看视频游戏,该中央监视器可以放置在酒吧、餐厅或者其它设施。自动点唱机(jukebox)430也可以连接到LAN 420。在一个实施例中,可以设置便携互动娱乐装置404和406请求特定歌曲通过自动点唱机430演奏。在一些实施例中,便携互动娱乐装置404和406可以接受付款以调换歌曲请求的优先权。
打印机432也可以连接到LAN 420以进行文档的打印。在一个实施例中,用户可以在便携互动娱乐装置404上检查帐单,以及提供信用卡付款使打印机432打印用户将签名的信用卡收据。在其它实施例中,打印机432可以用于打印电子邮件信息、互联网内容、便携互动娱乐装置捕捉的图片或者传统地由打印机处理的任何其它内容。
便携互动娱乐装置404和406可以通过无线或者有线连接与中央塔402通信。无线连接可以使在场所中的便携互动娱乐装置的移动变得方便。
例如餐厅或酒吧的场所也可以包括在场所中的一些或所有桌子上的以太网连接,该以太网连接允许便携互动娱乐装置404和406和中央塔402之间的有线连接。图5描述了另一个实施例,其中中央塔502和两个便携互动娱乐装置位于场所内的桌子上。其它桌也可以包括中央塔和便携互动娱乐装置。便携互动娱乐装置的数量可以符合桌子的尺寸(size)。
本领域的技术人员可以了解本发明的方面可以用于多种不同的设备设置。图6-9显示了结合中央塔、系线的支架(tethered stand)、未系线的支架、外部或内部无线接入点以及独立的便携互动娱乐装置的示范性设置。图6图示了实施例,其中设置中央塔600用以接收付款,以及两个便携互动娱乐装置602和604附加在系线的支架上。图7图示了实施例,其中设置中央塔700用以接收付款,以及一些便携互动娱乐装置702和704附加在系线的支架上,而其它便携互动娱乐装置706、708和710附加在未系线的支架上。图8图示了实施例,其中设置中央塔800用以接收付款,以及一些便携互动娱乐装置802和804附加在系线的支架上,而其它便携互动娱乐装置810、812和814附加在未系线的支架上,以及其它便携互动娱乐装置806和808是独立的(free standing)并且是未系线的。可以设置便携互动娱乐装置810、812和814用以接受付款。图9图示了实施例,其中包括一组没有中央塔的便携互动娱乐装置902、904、906、908、910和912。每一个便携互动娱乐装置可以连接在包括电池充电单元和付款接收器的支架上。
