Multiply interactive game equipment
View Patent ↗A game machine includes an object-capturing unit, a maneuver unit and a display unit. The game machine includes a capture area for containing objects each provided with an RFID tag and a scan area in communication with the capture area. The maneuver unit is operable to control the object-capturing unit to capture one of the objects from the capture area and drop the object into the scan area. A control module includes a processing unit, an initiating unit and a tag scanner. The processing unit is electrically connected to the object-capturing unit, the maneuver unit and the display unit. The initiating unit is electrically connected to the processing unit. The tag scanner is electrically connected to the processing unit, and adapted for scanning the RFID tag of the object so that a code of the RFID tag of the object can be translated and shown on the display unit.
1. A multiply interactive game equipment comprising:
a game machine comprising:
a space comprising a capture area for containing objects each provided with an RFID tag and a scan area in communication with the capture area;
an object-capturing unit located in the space thereof;
a maneuver unit provided thereon and operable to control the object-capturing unit to capture one of the objects from the capture area and then drop the object into the scan area; and
a display unit provided thereon; and
a control module located in the game machine and comprising:
a processing unit electrically connected to the object-capturing unit, the maneuver unit and the display unit;
an initiating unit electrically connected to the processing unit;
a tag scanner located in the scan area of the game machine, electrically connected to the processing unit, and adapted for scanning the RFID tag of the object so that a code carried by the RFID tag of the object can be translated and shown on the display unit.
2. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the game machine further comprises:
a basket located in the scan area of the space; and
a chute formed with an upper end in communication with the basket and a lower end in communication with the capture area so that the object dropped into the scan area falls back into the capture area via the chute.
3. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the game machine further comprises a stirrer located in the capture area of the space and adapted for stirring the objects.
4. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 3 , wherein the game machine further comprises a cover located in the capture are of the space and adapted for covering the objects, which are stirred by the stirrer.
5. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the display unit comprises a touch panel for use with the maneuver unit and for showing the data from the tag scanner.
6. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the processing unit comprises a web-connecting unit adapted for connection to the internet via cables or in a wireless manner to communicate game data.
7. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 6 , wherein the initiating unit comprises a virtual initiating unit built in the processing unit and adapted for receiving a command via the web-connecting unit and accordingly initiating a round of game.
8. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 6 , wherein the processing unit comprises an image-capturing unit supported on the game machine and adapted for taking images of the environment around the game machine for identification.
9. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim wherein 1 , the game machine further comprises an identification unit for identifying the game machine.
10. The multiply interactive game equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the RFID tag is a passive RFID tag operated at 120 to 150 KHz.
