Subject: RE: Roulette letters


I noticed a new feature at the roulette tables on my last trip to Nevada. The winning number is displayed on a board over the roulette table after the ball falls into the slot. There is a device mounted over the wheel which detects the occupied slot and puts the number up on a display. I couldn't see how it determined the slot number - perhaps there is some sort of infrared reflector with a coded number (like a bar-code scanner), or perhaps there is something to determine the position of the wheel and the reflection of the ball. This was at the Peppermill Casino in Wendover [Nevada, USA].

Greetings

I am a highschool graduate, and I have to analyze the statistics of roulette as my final project. I am having some trouble, and I was hoping you could assist me. I don't need the complicated version designed to make money. I just need a simple generic formula (so I can input my own data, such as wheel size, ball speed etc), to use with a simplified wheel , that will let me guess where the ball might fall. I suspect you had to develop something along this line in order to build your calculator.

My imaginary roulette table doesn't have diamonds, and it spins at the same speed every time. The ball is shot from above the wheel, spins around a few times, then falls into a slot (I have decided to ignore bouncing, or use it and then guess a nubmer of slots the ball might bounce). The whell then rises, and the ball falls through, and it's rince and repeat. The catch is, that the wheel is spinning the whole time. It never stops. It even spins when it rises. My teacher told me it has to be like this.

If you can, and are willing to help me, please reply to this e-mail adress. If not, I apologize for takin up your time.

Thank you in advance.

Hi
 
I'm Fred from Rosario - Argentina, and i'm interested on the mathematics involved in roulette prediction. I'm studying Electric Engineering and I love physics, and last week I read something about roulette prediction and I want to know more (specially the physics) about that science.
 
I hope that you'll answer.
 
Regards

helo
 
I had the pleasure of speaking to Mark Howe in the UK recently about your project and he commented that he was more impressed with your results and data than anyone else.
 
I am doing a exhibition in Germany soon on wearable roulette computers and also collect roulette computers for my collection if you are feeling generous. I
I have recently aquired an analogue system devised by Thorpe and shannon and also a copernicus computer. Rather that let your device go to waste, I welcome it to my collection and will give you a review that is fitting for your work in this field and would like permission to post your findings at my site.
 
YOu might find my site interesting, please take a look http://www.roulettecomputerreviews.com
 
Look forward to hearing from you

Hi,
My friends and I are physics students and were inspired by your story and so we thought we could give it a shot. We don't expect it to work however we think it would be a good exercise to try build a computer to predict the roulette wheel. We are currently in the process of collecting data and were hoping that you would be kind enough to send us yours.
Regards,
John, Jim and Dave
