Summary Packard and Farmer become interested in roulette as college science majors. They spend three years analyzing the physics of the wheel, deriving equations, collecting data and building portable, concealable computers to determine on which eighth of the wheel approximately six numbers the ball will drop into. After the ball is released, the player times the speed and location of the ball and the wheel and the computer returns the likely eighth. Bets are placed on this group of numbers which appear random on the table. The system works well as it boosts their odds tremendously. They go on to recruit a team but the rigors of the system and hardware reliability issues force them all to retire prematurely.
