Abstract (en)
[origin: US2006014586A1] An ergonomic adjustable "integral" gaming terminal configured to comfortably surround the player and provide audio isolation from the surroundings. The position and orientation of the various ergonomic elements including the sound volume and video brightness are computer controlled and memorized together with the player profile. A signal may be activated to allow ease of sitting-in and exiting the gaming terminal. Embodiments of the invention accommodate two or more seated players to play as a couple or as a team. The terminal includes body-relaxing devices such as back massage, leg massage and foot massage as well as soothing audio that are available while the player is playing games. Some entertainment and information services may be activated for an additional fee, if a bonus or quota is attained or according to a promotional scheme.
