Abstract
An electronic game board that simulates moves of one or more players includes a top cover that includes a play area onto which game pieces are arranged for facilitating a game. The electronic game board further includes a drive system located beneath the top cover for simulating the moves on the play area by moving at least one game piece from a first position on the play area to a second position on the play area. The drive system includes a robotic arm and first and second actuators for controlling movement of the robotic arm. To simulate the move, the first and second actuators control the movement of the robotic arm such that the game piece is moved from the first position to the second position by way of the robotic arm.
Claims5
A game board, comprising:
- a top cover including at least a play area onto which a first plurality of game pieces are arranged to facilitate a game;
- and
- a drive system located beneath the top cover and configured to simulate a move on the play area, wherein the simulation of the move includes a movement of at least one game piece, of the first plurality of game pieces, from a first position on the play area to a second position on the play area, and wherein the drive system includes:
- a first actuator;
- a base that houses the first actuator;
- a robotic arm that includes a first link and a second link, wherein the first link is rotatably attached to the base, and wherein the second link is rotatably attached to the first link;
- and
- a second actuator attached to the first link;
- wherein the first actuator and the second actuator are configured to control movement of the first link and the second link, respectively, such that the first link is circularly rotatable with respect to the base, and the second link is circularly rotatable with respect to the first link, and wherein to simulate the move, the first actuator and the second actuator control the movement of the robotic arm such that the game piece is moved from the first position to the second position by way of the robotic arm.
