Abstract
A tilt detection system including a roulette wheel, at least one inclination sensor positioned on or within a rim of the roulette wheel, and a display module comprising a plurality of light outputs. The tilt detection system can obtain positional data during operation of the roulette wheel and determine tilt data indicative of the roulette wheel's position relative to a baseline indicative of a leveled state. A roulette wheel tilt status, e.g., level, warning, and error, may be determined based on the tilt data, and a display module can activate the plurality of light outputs based on the tilt status. Two or more stepper motors may lever the roulette wheel in response to the tilt status.
Claims22
A tilt detection system, comprising:
- a roulette wheel;
- at least one inclination sensor positioned within a rim of the roulette wheel;
- a display module comprising a plurality of light outputs;
- a processor communicatively coupled to the at least one inclination sensor and the display module, and a memory comprising instruction that, when executed by the processor, cause the tilt detection system to at least:
- obtain positional data from the at least one inclination sensor during operation of the roulette wheel;
- determine tilt data based on the positional data, wherein the tilt data is indicative of inclination of the roulette wheel relative to a baseline;
- determine a tilt status based on the tilt data;
- and
- activate the plurality of light outputs based on the tilt status.
A tilt detection method, comprising:
- obtaining positional data from at least one inclination sensor during operation of a roulette wheel, wherein the at least one inclination sensor is positioned within a rim of the roulette wheel;
- determining tilt data based on the positional data wherein the tilt data is indicative of inclination of the roulette wheel relative to a baseline;
- determining a tilt status based on the tilt data;
- and
- activating a plurality of light outputs based on the tilt status, wherein the plurality of light outputs is positioned within the rim of the roulette wheel.
