Abstract

A method of activating a lottery ticket at a mobile device, comprising: performing the following to a mobile device side: acquiring, by a camera of the mobile device, an image of a lottery ticket having an identification code and a visual security means; sending the identification code to a main server; receiving instructions to manipulate an interactive three-dimensional presentation from the main server; augmenting the interactive three-dimensional presentation in an image sequence imaging the lottery ticket, the image sequence is currently captured by the camera and displayed by the mobile device; receiving input from a user interacting with the interactive three-dimensional presentation using user interface of the mobile device; and manipulating the interactive three-dimensional presentation according to the instructions and in response to processing the input.

Claims (60)

1 . A method of activating a lottery ticket at a mobile device, comprising:

performing the following to a mobile device side:

acquiring, by a camera of said mobile device, an image of a lottery ticket having an identification code and a visual security means;

sending said identification code to a main server;

receiving instructions to manipulate an interactive three-dimensional presentation from said main server;

augmenting said interactive three-dimensional presentation in an image sequence imaging said lottery ticket, said image sequence is currently captured by said camera and displayed by said mobile device;

receiving input from a user interacting with said interactive three-dimensional presentation using user interface of said mobile device; and

manipulating said interactive three-dimensional presentation according to said instructions and in response to processing said input.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising, after said acquiring:

verifying authenticity of said lottery card according to said visual security means captured in said image; and

identifying said identification code captured in said image.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said lottery ticket is one of a plurality of lottery tickets associated with a lottery game.

4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein said lottery ticket further includes a second identification code for identifying said lottery game.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said lottery ticket is an unused scratch ticket.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said verifying includes personal information of said user.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said verifying is further based on personal information of said user.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said sending and said receiving is performed by encrypted communication.

9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

performing the following to a mobile device side:

activating an action for marking said lottery ticket as obsolete.

10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

making a decision regarding a winning amount based on said input; and

presenting said winning amount to said user.

11 . A computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions adapted to perform the method of claim 1 .

12 . A method of activating a lottery ticket at a mobile device, comprising:

performing the following to a main server side:

receiving an image from a mobile device, acquired by a camera of said mobile device, of a lottery ticket having an identification code and a visual security means;

verifying authenticity of said lottery card according to said visual security means captured in said image;

identifying said identification code captured in said image;

selecting instructions to manipulate an interactive three-dimensional presentation that is augmented by said mobile device in an image sequence imaging said lottery ticket captured by said camera; and

sending said instructions to said mobile device.

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein said verifying is further based on an indication of said lottery ticket being purchased.

14 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:

marking said identification code as obsolete in a dataset of lottery ticket identification code in said main server.

15 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:

performing the following to a main server side:

receiving indication of input received from a user interacting with said interactive three-dimensional presentation using user interface of said mobile device; and

monitoring said input.

16 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising:

performing the following to a main server side:

sending further instructions to manipulate said interactive three-dimensional presentation to said mobile device according to said input.

17 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising:

performing the following to a main server side:

making a decision regarding a winning amount based on said input; and

sending indication of said decision to said mobile device.

18 . A computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions adapted to perform the method of claim 12 .

19 . A system for activating a lottery ticket at a mobile device, comprising:

a mobile device that:

acquires, by a camera of said mobile device, an image of a lottery ticket having an identification code and a visual security means;

sends said image to a main server;

receives instructions to manipulate an interactive three-dimensional presentation from said main server;

augments said interactive three-dimensional presentation in an image sequence imaging said lottery ticket, said image sequence is currently captured by said camera and displayed by said mobile device;

receives input from a user interacting with said interactive three-dimensional presentation using user interface of said mobile device; and

manipulates said interactive three-dimensional presentation according to said instructions and in response to processing said input; and

a main server that:

receives said image from said mobile device;

verifies authenticity of said lottery card according to said visual security means captured in said image;

identifies said identification code captured in said image;

selects said instructions; and

sends said instructions to said mobile device.
