MULTI SOURCED POINT ACCUMULATION INTERACTIVE GAME

摘要

Gaming systems and methods for integrated computer-related and physical game play interactions between a game player, a physical game piece and an electronic device are defined. The physical game piece measures motion quantity and transmits motion data using a signal emitter when the signal emitter is actuated. The electronic device receives the transmitted signal, which a game application inputs along with user input. The game application uses the user input and the transmitted signal to tally game player score data in an accumulator.

1. A gaming system for integrated computer-related and physical game play interactions comprising:
a physical game piece comprising:
a motion detector that measures motion quantity;a signal emitter in communication with the motion detector and configured to emit one or more signals wherein each signal relates to a measured motion quantity; andan actuator coupled to the signal emitter and configured to actuate the signal emitter; and an electronic device comprising:
a receiver configured to receive signals emitted from the signal emitter;a user input interface; anda game application comprising:
a score accumulator that tallies one or more game player scores of one or more respective score types;a first program module responsive to the user input interface and in communication with the score accumulator that receives user input and that sends score data of the one or more score types to the score accumulator for the score accumulator to tally based on the pattern of user input and the score type; anda second program module in communication with the receiver that inputs the signals emitted from the signal emitter and that sends score data of the one or more score types to the score accumulator for the score accumulator to tally based on the pattern of the received signals and the score type.
