    摘要: An apparatus, including a vehicle computer located at a vehicle which is an electric vehicle or hybrid vehicle; battery recharging equipment which includes a plug-in recharging system, an electric road inductive charging system, or an electric road electrified contact charging system, and a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader. The vehicle computer processes information and determines a battery charge level or a battery charge state for a battery of the vehicle, processes information to identify a battery recharging facility, and provides navigation instructions to the battery recharging facility. The RFID reader obtains information from a battery recharging system located at the battery recharging facility. The vehicle computer receives an activity report regarding the recharging of the battery by the battery recharging facility and displays information contained in the activity report. The activity report or information contained in the activity report is stored in a distributed ledger and blockchain technology system.

    摘要: A betting apparatus, including a lottery computer which includes a processor; an input device which includes an RFID reader; a transmitter; and an output device which includes a printer. The RFID reader reads information contained in an RFID tag associated with a lottery gaming account associated with a user. The processor processes the information read by the RFID reader, identifies the lottery gaming account, processes information for purchasing a lottery ticket associated with a lottery drawing or game on the lottery gaming account, generates a lottery ticket for printing via the printer, and generates an electronic lottery ticket corresponding to the lottery ticket. The printer prints the lottery ticket. The transmitter transmits the electronic lottery ticket to a first communication device associated with the user. The processor or the betting apparatus stores information regarding the lottery ticket or the electronic lottery ticket in the lottery gaming account.
