PLAYING CARD IMAGING TECHNOLOGY WITH THROUGH-THE-CARD VIEWING TECHNOLOGY

摘要

A method of reading suit and rank of playing cards is enabled on a system for controlled provision of image content of faces of a playing card that has:e) a support surface for playing cards;f) a source of infrared radiation;g) an infrared sensitive camera; andh) a processor.The infrared sensitive camera positioned to capture infrared radiation transmitted through the playing cards and transmit information based on the captured radiation to the processor; and the processor configured to provide suit and rank information of a playing card through which the infrared radiation was transmitted.
