Abstract: Gaming systems and methods that automatically adjust the audio outputted by the gaming system based on a determination to make a change to the audio based on one or more of player related data and/or play related data. Upon an occurrence of an audio adjustment determination, the gaming system automatically makes an adjustment to the audio outputted by the gaming system. This automatic audio adjustment feature can be employed in association with the audio outputted in association with a play of a primary game, the audio outputted in association with a play of a secondary game, the audio outputted before a play of a primary game or before a play of a secondary game, and/or the audio outputted after a play of a primary game or after a play of a secondary game.

Abstract: An electronic gaming machine where the player plays an interactive game using their player eye gaze. A graphics processor generates an interactive game environment and defines a viewing area as its subset, the viewing area having visible game components. A display device displays the viewing area having the plurality of visible game components. The display controller controls rendering of the viewing area on the display device using the graphics processor. At least one data capture camera device continuously monitors the player eye gaze to collect player eye gaze data. The game controller determines the location of the player's eye gaze relative to the viewing area and triggers a control command to the display controller. In response, the display controller controls the display device in real-time to provide a graphical animation effect displayed on the display device representative of a visual update to the visible game components in the viewing area.

Abstract: A computer device and method for displaying a 3D avatar and causing the 3D avatar to move are provided. The computer device may be an electronic gaming machine, and comprises a camera which can be used to collect data on the movement of a player of an electronic game. The movements of the player may then be analyzed and used to generate avatar movement data for moving the 3D avatar. The 3D avatar may mimic the motions of the player, or may react to the player's motions in complimentary fashion. Additionally, the electronic gaming machine may be networked to other like electronic gaming machines, which may share avatar movement data amongst themselves.
