Abstract

An interface receives a first digital signature of real-world data. A memory stores the first digital signature as seed data. The interface receives a second digital signature of real-world data. The memory stores the second digital signature as seed data. A processor generates first draw seed based, at least in part, on the seed data. The processor generates a first draw result based upon the first draw seed and a drawing algorithm. The interface receives a second draw result from a remote entity, the second draw result based, at least in part, on the first digital signature and the second digital signature. The processor determines whether the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement. Upon a determination that the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement, the interface communicates at least one of the first draw result and the second draw result.

Claims (48)

1. A system, comprising:

an interface operable to receive a first digital signature of real-world data;

a memory operable to store the first digital signature as first seed data;

the interface further operable to receive a second digital signature of real-world data;

the memory further operable to store the second digital signature as second seed data;

a processor operable to:

generate a first draw seed based, at least in part, on the first seed data and the second seed data and the first seed data and the second seed data are identical; and

generate a first draw result based upon the first draw seed and a drawing algorithm;

the interface further operable to receive a second draw result from a remote entity, the second draw result based, at least in part, on the first digital signature and the second digital signature; and

the processor further operable to determine whether the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein upon a determination that the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement, the interface further operable to communicate at least one of the first draw result and the second draw result.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first digital signature of real-world data is received, using a barcode scanner, from a barcode.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first draw result and the second draw result indicate the outcome of at least one of a lotto quick pick, slot machine, Keno, and national draw game.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the real-world data comprises wager information, and the wager information indicates the time, amount, and location of a wager.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first digital signature and the second digital signature are generated at least in part, by one of a True Random Number Generator and using real-world data.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first draw seed is generated using a one-time pad encryption.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the one-time pad encryption is an exclusive-OR combination.

9. A method, comprising:

receiving, through an interface, a first digital signature of real-world data;

storing, using a memory, the first digital signature as first seed data;

receiving, through the interface, a second digital signature of real-world data;

storing, using the memory, the second digital signature as second seed data;

generating, using a processor, a first draw seed based, at least in part, on the first seed data and the second seed data and the first seed data and the second seed data are identical;

generating, using the processor, a first draw result based upon the first draw seed and a drawing algorithm;

receiving, through the interface, a second draw result from a remote entity, the second draw result based, at least in part, on the first digital signature and the second digital signature; and

determining, using the processor, whether the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising upon a determination that the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement, communicating, through the interface, at least one of the first draw result and the second draw result.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first digital signature of real-world data is received, using a barcode scanner, from a barcode.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first draw result and the second draw result indicate the outcome of at least one of a lotto quick pick, slot machine, Keno, and national draw game.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the real-world data comprises wager information, and the wager information indicates the time, amount, and location of a wager.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first digital signature and the second digital signature are generated at least in part, by one of a True Random Number Generator and using real-world data.

15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first draw seed is generated using a one-time pad encryption.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the one-time pad encryption is an exclusive-OR combination.

17. Non-transitory computer readable medium comprising logic, the logic, when executed by a processor, operable to:

receive a first digital signature of real-world data;

store the first digital signature as first seed data;

receive a second digital signature of real-world data;

store the second digital signature as second seed data;

generate a first draw seed based, at least in part, on the first second data and the second seed data and the first seed data and the second seed data are identical;

generate a first draw result based upon the first draw seed and a drawing algorithm;

receive a second draw result from a remote entity, the second draw result based, at least in part, on the first digital signature and the second digital signature; and

determine whether the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement.

18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the logic, when executed by the processor, is further operable to, upon a determination that the first draw result and the second draw result are in agreement, communicate at least one of the first draw result and the second draw result.

19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the first digital signature of real-world data is received, using a barcode scanner, from a barcode.

20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the first draw result and the second draw result indicate the outcome of at least one of a lotto quick pick, slot machine, Keno, and national draw game.

21. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the real-world data comprises wager information, and the wager information indicates the time, amount, and location of a wager.

22. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the first digital signature and the second digital signature are generated at least in part, by one of a True Random Number Generator and using real-world data.

23. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the first draw seed is generated using a one-time pad encryption.
