The slot-mode antenna includes an array of slot antenna units carried by a substrate, and each slot antenna unit has a pair of patch antenna elements arranged in laterally spaced apart relation about at least one central feed position. Adjacent patch antenna elements of adjacent slot-mode antenna units include respective spaced apart edge portions defining gaps therebetween, and a capacitive coupling layer or plates overlap the respective spaced apart edge portions to provide increased capacitive coupling therebetween. The capacitive coupling layer may include continuous or periodic capacitive coupling plates along each gap defined by the respective spaced apart edge portions.

A gaming machine including a first video-type display having a first aspect ratio and a first resolution, which together define a first display characteristic set. The gaming machine further includes a second video-type display having a second aspect ratio and a second resolution, which together define a second display characteristic set that is different from the first display characteristic set. The gaming machine further includes a video controller that is coupled to a controller that is coupled to the first video-type display and to the second video-type display. The controller, which can be external to the gaming machine or in the gaming machine, is programmed to instruct the video controller to cause a first set of images to be displayed on the first video-type display and a second set of images to be displayed on the second video-type display.

A redirecting feedthrough lens antenna system may include first and second phased array antennas coupled together in back-to-back relation. More particularly, the first and second phased array antennas may include respective first and second arrays of dipole antenna elements thereon, wherein each dipole antenna element may include a medial feed portion and a pair of legs extending outwardly therefrom. The system may also include a respective phase shifter connected between each pair of back-to-back dipole antenna elements of the first and second dipole antenna arrays. Furthermore, a controller may be included for cooperating with the phase shifters to cause a signal received by the first phased array antenna at a first angle to be transmitted from the second phased array antenna at a redirected second angle different from the first angle.

A gaming machine for playing a wagering game includes a housing having a display region, a controller for conducting the wagering game, and a video projector coupled to the controller. The display region includes a plurality of projection surfaces secured to floating screen assemblies. The video projector simulates mechanical reels of a slot machine in the display region. The video projector displays images of a plurality of symbols that indicate a randomly selected outcome of said wagering game. The images are projected onto the projection surfaces within the display region.

A multiband phased array antenna includes a substrate, and dipole element arrays extending outwardly from an imaginary center point on the substrate. Each dipole element array includes dipole antenna elements arranged in an end-to-end relation and having a dipole size different than a dipole size of dipole antenna elements of at least one other dipole element array. A ground plane is adjacent the dipole element arrays and has a different spacing therefrom in an outward direction from the imaginary center point. The different spacing between the ground plane and the dipole element arrays increases from the imaginary center point towards an edge of the substrate.

A compact multi-band ring-focus antenna system. The antenna system includes a first and a second main reflector 304, 306, each having a shaped surface of revolution about a common boresight axis (322) of the antenna. A first backfire type RF feed system (302, 312) is provided for feeding the first main reflector (304) on a first frequency band. A second RF feed (301) coaxial with the first RF feed (300) is provided for feeding the second main reflector (306) on a second frequency band spectrally offset from the first frequency band. Further a portion of the second RF feed passes through a first sub-reflector (302) of the backfire feed. The second RF feed is terminated a distance from the first sub-reflector to illuminate a second sub-reflector (303).

A phased array antenna includes a substrate, and an array of dipole antenna elements are on the substrate. Each dipole antenna element includes a medial feed portion, and a pair of legs extending outwardly therefrom. Each dipole antenna element further includes a passive load, and a switch connected thereto for selectively coupling the passive load to the medial feed portion so that the dipole antenna element selectively functions as an absorber for absorbing received signals while the passive load dissipates energy associated therewith.

A phased array antenna includes a substrate, and a patterned conductive layer is on the substrate. The patterned conductive layer defines a plurality of slotted dipole antenna elements each having a medial feed portion associated therewith. Each slotted dipole antenna element includes a pair of slotted legs extending outwardly from the medial feed portion. Pairs of adjacent slotted legs of adjacent slotted dipole antenna elements include respective spaced apart end portions having predetermined shapes and relative positioning to provide increased inductive coupling between the adjacent slotted dipole antenna elements.
