ABSTRACT:
An embedded additional user interface10includes a web page display screen20and an embedded processor30, and is incorporated into a gaming machine40that in turn includes a gaming screen50and a gaming processor60. The embedded processor30employs an internal operating system and communicates with the gaming processor60. The embedded processor reads incoming data, translates the data into a web authoring language, and maps the data to the web page display screen. The display screen20presents web page information to a user via the display screen, thereby increasing user excitement by providing a richer gaming experience. This provides a dramatic improvement over traditional system components70(input/output peripherals) that have been used in the past to access service and system information, such as a 2-line, 20-character VF display and a 12-digit keypad.
