20110066436 | Speaker intent analysis system - A speaker intent analysis system and method for validating the truthfulness and intent of a plurality of participants' responses to questions. A computer stores, retrieves, and transmits a series of questions to be answered audibly by participants. The participants' answers are received by a data processor. The data processor analyzes and records the participants' speech parameters for determining the likelihood of dishonesty. In addition to analyzing participants' speech parameters for distinguishing stress or other abnormality, the processor may be equipped with voice recognition software to screen responses that while not dishonest, are indicative of possible malfeasance on the part of the participants. Once the responses are analyzed, the processor produces an output that is indicative of the participant's credibility. The output may be sent to proper parties and/or devices such as a web page, computer, e-mail, PDA, pager, database, report, etc. for appropriate action. | 03-17-2011 |
20110319154 | Blackjack pass game - The card game of Blackjack Pass is provided in either an electronic format or in a traditional card game format including decks with 52 physical playing cards. Blackjack Pass is played with many of the same rules as standard Blackjack. Blackjack Pass is played using one or more standard fifty-two card decks of playing cards. Each Player and the Dealer are initially dealt two cards. Similar to standard Blackjack, the game of Blackjack is resolved by determination as to whether the Player's hand or the Dealer's hand is closer, without exceeding 21. The Player or Dealer “busts”, and thereby loses, by exceeding 21. However, unlike traditional standard Blackjack, in Blackjack Pass, in the event that the Dealer has a better hand than the Player after the Dealer's turn taking cards, then a player is given the opportunity to take additional cards. Play cycles between the Dealer and Player taking turns electing to take cards until the Dealer busts, the Player busts, or there is a “Push”. | 12-29-2011 |
