Abrégé

A claw machine including a cabinet adapted to hold multiple objects on a horizontal surface in a non-overlapping manner. Each one of the objects are visually marked with a unique identifier. A human machine interface adapted to identify a user or a player election held during a game event that is indicative of the multiple identifiers. A processing circuitry connected to a claw machine gantry assembly and adapted to instruct the claw machine gantry assembly to maneuver the claw according to a random or a pseudo random pattern until the claw grips one of the objects during the game event. A sensing mechanism adapted to identify which of the plurality of objects is gripped by the claw during the game event.

Abrégé

A chip dispensing system for gaming comprises a plurality of chip dispensing units. Each chip dispensing unit comprises a magazine for storing chips. Each chip is assigned a monetary value. Each chip dispensing unit further comprises a ramp extending from the magazine, and an arm for propelling each dispensed chip toward a chip playing field. Processing circuitry monitors a cumulative value of a series of wagers over a time period, and to determine that a cumulative value of chips dispensed toward the playing field corresponds to a predefined return-to-player percentage of the series of wagers: following receipt of a wager, calculate a value of chips to be added to the chip playing field in order to maintain the predefined return-to-player percentage; and instruct the chip dispensing units to dispense chips having a collective value equivalent to the calculated value toward the chip playing field.
