In September 2008, video of a prototype RFID Poker Table was released, showing a poker table that

had been equipped with RFID electronics and software that displayed real time video of a poker

game, with graphics that displayed each player's cards as they were dealt.



The video received over 50,000 views on YouTube and resulted in an avalanche of commercial

enquiries. "There was clearly strong demand for a commercial product, but at the time the

technology wasn't available at a viable price point" says Andrew. He added "Today that has changed,

and I'm pleased to be able to announce the launch of a commercial grade kit at a price that

represents real value for money."



Sold as a DIY kit, customers build their table from components available at the online store. Kits

include all table electronics, playing cards, software, CAD drawings and a step by step build guide.

Specially manufactured high quality playing cards that contain embedded RFID tags are a key

component; with a high end acetate finish that is indistinguishable from standard playing cards, the

RFID cards look, feel and play exactly like the real thing.



The RFID Video Poker Table includes a suite of software applications for Windows that offers ease of

use and rich functionality. Featuring fully customizable graphics, HD video support, live Internet

streaming and a fully featured post production edit suite, the software caters to home game

hobbyists and broadcast professionals alike.



Eliminating the need for pocket cams and automating the time consuming and expensive process of

manually recording poker hands and creating custom graphics, game graphics are rendered in just

minutes in post production, or in real time for live broadcast.



Detailed information, including comprehensive technical resources is available from

http://videopokertable.net along with kits for purchase at the online store. Kits are available for

immediate shipping worldwide, and pricing is around AUD 1,600 depending on exact table

specifications.
