Abstract
A processor-based gaming machine running wager-based games can include an exterior housing, master gaming controller, display device, camera, and software applications adapted to facilitate communications between the gaming machine and a separate external mobile device. Such communications include the use of optically formatted encoded data provided on a display, captured by a camera or other capturing component and decoded by the receiving device. The gaming machine can be the displaying device, the image capturing device, or both. The optically formatted encoded data can be a barcode, QR code or other suitable code, can be encrypted, and/or can be embedded within another displayed image unrelated to the optically formatted code. Optical code data can include, for example, meter readings of the gaming machine, configuration settings to be adapted, game play history, or promotional or loyalty awards, among other items.
