Gaming service automation machine with drop box services

This describes a robot designed for casinos to automate the collection of value instruments, such as cash or tickets, from gaming devices. The robot navigates to a specific gaming machine on the casino floor, authenticates an authorized person, and then allows them to deposit the value instruments into a secure compartment. After the deposit, the compartment locks, and the robot provides a receipt.

Why it matters: Filed before the widespread maturation of affordable, robust autonomous indoor navigation systems and advanced on-device biometric authentication for secure transactions. These technological improvements since 2021 could make the robot's deployment and secure operation more feasible and cost-effective.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
