Gaming machine that senses player playing game thereon
View Patent ↗A gaming machine includes at least a human body detection sensor. The human body detection sensor is disposed on a lower face of a housing portion, so as to face downward and face a cabinet main body. In addition, the gaming machine is provided with a sound sensor on an upper face thereof, and starts executing a game in a case where the human body detection sensor responds and then the sound sensor detects a player's voice.
1. A gaming machine comprising:
a control unit that executes a game;
a cabinet that houses the control unit;
a main door that is openable and closable;
a human body detection sensor for detecting a human body;
an operating unit that is disposed along a peripheral edge on a front side of the main door, and can be operated by a player; and
an illuminating portion that outputs light to a face on the front side of the main door on which the operating unit is disposed, and outputs light toward feet of the player,
wherein the illuminating portion includes
a first illuminating portion that is provided on the face of the main door and a second illuminating portion that is provided on a face of the cabinet, and
wherein
in a case where a signal indicating detection of a human body is not received from the human body detection sensor, the control unit illuminates at least one of the first illuminating portion and the second illuminating portion, and in a case where the signal indicating detection of a human body is received from the human body detection sensor, the control unit turns off the at least one of the first illuminating portion and the second illuminating portion.
2. The gaming machine as described in claim 1 , wherein:
the cabinet includes a housing portion having an opening on an upper side thereof and a supporting portion that is provided on a first side of the housing and supports the housing portion; and
wherein the main door is disposed so as to cover the opening portion and the second illuminating portion is provided on the supporting portion.
3. A gaming machine comprising:
a human body detection sensor that detects a player;
a speaker that outputs sound;
a top door that is openable and closable;
a control unit that executes a game; and
a cabinet that houses the control unit, wherein
the cabinet includes a housing portion having an opening on an upper side thereof and a supporting portion that is formed continuously from at least one lateral face of the housing portion and supports a part of a face on a lower side of the housing portion,
the top door is disposed so as to cover the opening, and
the human body detection sensor includes
a first sensor disposed on a lower lateral face side, which is the face on the lower side of the housing portion, and
a second sensor that detects sound and is disposed on a face on an upper side of the top door, the second sensor detects a response of the player to a predetermined question output from the speaker, and a predetermined image is displayed on a display based on the detected response.
4. The gaming machine as described in claim 3 , wherein
the first sensor is disposed on the lower lateral face side of the housing portion in the vicinity of an outer edge on a front side of the housing portion, so that an apex of the first sensor faces the supporting portion.
5. The gaming machine as described in claim 3 , wherein
the control unit outputs sound from the speaker based on a signal being output by the first sensor, and displays the predetermined image on the display in a case where the second sensor further detects sound.
6. The gaming machine as described in claim 3 , wherein
the detected response is analyzed to determine whether it is a predetermined response.
7. The gaming machine as described in claim 3 , wherein
the second sensor is disposed on an operating unit that is disposed on the face on the upper side of the top door and the speaker is disposed on an application unit disposed on a back face side of the cabinet.
