DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, a game system in accordance with the present invention comprises a random sampling game machine (10), a main controller (12), multiple user interfaces (14) and a displaying interface (16). The random sampling game machine (10) may be a Bingo machine, a Lottery Machine, a Ball drawing machine for random sampling balls to keep from cheat and provide a fair competition to users.

The main controller (12) is electrically connected to the random sampling game machine (10) to receive operation results singles sent from the random sampling game machine (10) and to calculate results based on the operation result singles sent from the random sampling game machine (10) and generate human type images based on the calculated results. In optional embodiments, the main controller (12) can be directly mounted on the game machine (10) or is separated from and connected with the game machine (10) with cable, Internet or Intranet.

The user interfaces (14) are electrically connected to the main controller (12) for inputting singles and displaying the calculated results generated by the main controller (12). The user interfaces (14) may have a keyboard with multiple keys to allow users to select games or place stakes and a display to show information abut games, results or player's score to the users.

With further reference to FIG. 3, the displaying interface (16) is electrically connected to the main controller (12) and facing the user interfaces (14) to show the operation results of the game machine (10) and the calculated results and the human type images (20) provided by the main controller (12) to the users. The displaying interface (16) has at least one display panel facing the user interfaces (14) for displaying the operation results, the calculated results and the human type images (20). With the displaying interface (16), the human type images (20) provided by the main controller (12) can show motions of dealing or the like. In optional embodiments, the human type images (20) shown on the displaying interface (16) can be images pre-recorded by real humans or human type or cartoon type animation created by computer program

Accordingly, because a game is processed with the game machine (10), a fair competition is provided and cheat is prevented. At this time, the displaying interface (16) shows processes and results of the game with human type images (20), so this can provide a friendly sense of reality of playing with real humans to the users and the entertainment of playing games is improved.

With reference to FIGS. 2, 4 and 5, in alternative embodiments, the user interfaces (14,14′) are arranged in multiple rows or a single row and the displaying interface (16,16′) is arranged in front of the user interfaces (14,14′). The displaying interface (16) has a displaying panel mounted on one side of the displaying interface and facing the user interfaces (14). The user interfaces (14′) may be arranged in two sections and each section comprises multiple user interfaces (14′) arranged in at least one row and facing the user interfaces (14′) in the other section. The displaying interface (16′) is arranged between the sections of the user interfaces (14′) and has two sides facing respectively to the sections of the user interfaces (14′). The displaying interface (16′) has two display panels mounted respectively on the sides of the displaying interface (16′). Accordingly, the user and displaying interfaces (14,14′,16,16′) can be arranged in different types based on the space for the game system and needs of the users, and the arrangement and use of the game system in accordance with the present invention is versatile and variable.

With reference to FIG. 6, the game system may have multiple displaying interfaces (16) electrically connected to a single game machine (10) to allow multiple sets of users playing games with the single game machine (10). Thus, the versatility of using the game machine is enhanced.

In addition, because the game machine (10), the main controller (12), the user interfaces (14) and the displaying interfaces (16) can be connected with cables, Internet or Intranet, the game machine (10) that generates loud noise can be arranged in a place far away from the user interfaces (14). This can make the users playing games to leave far away from noise source, and a comfortable space for playing game is provided.

With reference to FIGS. 1, 3 and 7, a method for displaying images (20) on a displaying interface comprising acts of:

a) starting and operating a random sampling game machine (10);

b) sending operation result singles of the random sampling game machine (10) to a main controller (12);

c) calculating results based on the operation results of the random sampling game machine (10) and generating human type images (20) based on the calculated results;

d) showing human type images (20) generated by the main controller (12) on a displaying interface (16); and

2) sending and showing calculated results by the main controller (12) on multiple user interfaces (14).

With such a method, the displaying interface (16) can show human type images (20) provided by the main controller (12) to users playing the game, and the sense of reality and entertainment of playing gambling games are improved.

Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
