SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPARATUS FOR TRACKING MACHINE USE
An electro-mechanical device is disclosed. The electro-mechanical device has an electrical switch and a mechanical meter operably connected to the electrical switch. The mechanical meter includes at least one aperture. The mechanical meter includes at least one movable member having at least one of a plurality of barcodes or a plurality of characters. The at least one of the plurality of barcodes or the plurality of characters is selectively visible through the at least one aperture.
An operation assembly for a game assembly is disclosed. The operation assembly has an actuating assembly, an electric relay that is electrically connected to the actuating assembly, a tracking device that is electrically connected to the electric relay, and a display assembly that is selectively electrically connected to the electric relay. The display assembly is configured to transfer an electrical pulse from the display assembly to the tracking device via the electric relay. The actuating assembly performs an operation when the electrical pulse is transferred to the tracking device. The operation includes activating one or more actuators of the actuating assembly to move a structural member of the actuating assembly. The structural member is disposed at an elongated slot of the game assembly.

A tracking apparatus for a machine having an operation assembly is disclosed. The tracking apparatus has an electric relay configured to be connected to the operation assembly, a tracking device that is connected to the electric relay, and an electronic payment device that is connected to the electric relay. The electric relay is configured to transfer a first electrical pulse from the operation assembly to the tracking device. The electric relay is configured to transfer a second electrical pulse from either the electronic payment device or the operation assembly to the tracking device. The relay transfers the first electrical pulse or the second electrical pulse when the operation assembly performs an operation.
