Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are provided. A device may include a gesture input device to detect gesture inputs performed by a user, a processor circuit, and a memory coupled to the processor circuit. The memory includes machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to receive a first gesture input value from the first gesture input device and that corresponds to a user-specific gesture that the user performs, associate the first gesture input value with a first gaming device operation to be performed by the gaming device, receive the first gesture input value that is associated with the first gaming device operation, and responsive to receiving the first gesture input value that is associated with the first gaming device operation, cause the gaming device to perform the first gaming device operation.

Abstract: A gaming device includes a base and a transparent display disposed on the base including an emissive layer including an array of pixels, each including an emissive pixel element and a transparent portion, and a conductive layer operatively coupled to the emissive layer to selectively operate the emissive pixel elements. The gaming device further includes a processor circuit a memory storing machine-readable instructions that cause the processor circuit to selectively operate the transparent display. The transparent portion of each pixel is transparent to visible light in an inactive state such that an environment behind the transparent display is visible through the transparent portion to a user in front of the transparent display. Each pixel of the array of pixels emits light in an active state sufficient to obscure visibility of the environment behind the transparent display through the transparent portion to the user in front of the transparent display.

Abstract: A system includes a processor circuit and a memory coupled to the processor circuit. The memory includes machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to provide, by the processor circuit, a virtual environment in a metaverse. The virtual environment includes a virtual electronic gaming machine (EGM). The processor circuit is further caused to receive, via the processing circuit and from a gaming device that is in a physical world and that corresponds to a user, an identification of a modification to the virtual environment that is not possible in the physical world. The processor circuit further caused to provide, responsive to receiving the identification of the modification and via the processing circuit, the modification to the virtual environment.

Abstract: A cryptographic token associated with a player including a cryptographic hash associated with a blockchain, a player identifier indicative of a player associated with the cryptographic token, and a progress identifier indicative of a present progress value for a wagering game is determined, and a first progress value associated with a first play session of a first wagering game by a player is determined. Based on the first progress value, the progress identifier of the cryptographic token is modified to add the first progress value to the present progress value. Based on the present progress value, a first game benefit to the player is provided.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods are provided. A gaming device includes an input device that includes multiple input locations and a pressure sensor to detect, for each input location, an amount of pressure applied to the input device at the input location by a player. The gaming device includes a processor circuit and a memory coupled to the processor circuit. The memory includes machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to receive, from the input device, multiple pressure parameter values corresponding to a first amount of pressure being applied to a first portion of the input locations, determine a pressure pattern that corresponds to locations of the first portion of the input locations, and based on the pressure parameter values and the pressure pattern, determine an identification of an object that is on the input device.
