RFID Video Poker Table adds zing to the game

Filed in archive Implementation on September 9, 2008

How about holding a poker tournament from the comforts of your living room with all the fanfare? Here is the Video Poker table which may appear like just another ordinary poker table but let me tell you it's different. This is not the run of the mill poker table rather it's an RFID backed Video Poker Table which tracks the movement of playing cards and the same information appears as video feed with the help of four video cameras.





The standard KEM cards have been tagged with RFID smart labels and the game data collected is transmitted to a computer and processed using software applications. The edited video feed derived at the end of the day is uploaded on the web server which can be accessed by players later on. This would give the feel of a televised game to the players and increase their interest in the game too. The concept looks cool to me and I would surely like to get an RFID poker table for my home too!!
