A card shooter apparatus (1) in a table game system a card shooter unit (4) including a card storage unit (2) that stores a plurality of cards (100) in a horizontal stack. A control device (5) constituted by a program storage unit, a computer device, or the like is placed in a lower part of the card shooter apparatus (1). A transparent bottom plate (9) is provided on a bottom of the card storage unit (2). An optical sensor (10) that receives reflected lights of lights applied to end surfaces of the plurality of cards (100) stored in the card storage unit (2), and a DNA sensor (11) that obtains DNA information from a DNA-containing coating applied to the cards (100) stored in the card storage unit 2 are placed below the bottom plate (9).
摘要:
A game apparatus and a method using a light source, a convex mirror and an optical sensor, all disposed within a housing, are described. The housing is transparent to the range of wavelengths from the light source and is composed of a low distortion scratch-resistant material. A game board is also used along with retro-reflective elements, such as moveable playing markers or game tokens, cards or regions affixed to and integrated into the game board. A data store stores the locations of the reflective elements and other game-related data, such as data needed to measure a player's score or position in a game or data to provide guided play. The convex mirror is disposed inside the housing such that light reflects from the light source, off the convex mirror, through the housing, and onto the game board. The one or more retro-reflective elements, when placed on the game board, receive light emanated from the light source. The light received by the one or more retro-reflective elements reflects off of the convex mirror and along substantially the same path from which the light was received. The optical sensor receives light reflected from the one or more retro-reflective elements, senses increases and decreases in the intensity of the reflected light, and signals changes in the intensity of the reflected light greater than or equal to a predefined level. A processor, or computer, is responsive to signals from the sensor and the data in the data store.

A card game apparatus includes a large-size panel display, a main control unit that controls screens on the large-size panel display, and a plurality of terminal apparatuses that are communicably connected to the main control unit. A game player purchases an integrated circuit card and, for example, eleven player cards on each of which, a soccer player's photograph is printed. When the game player arranges the player cards on a player card arrangement panel of one of the terminal apparatuses, card data recorded on the back of the player card will be read by an internal image sensor. Then, a team is organized by the player cards, and a game starts. The game player can direct a player's position and formation by changing placement of the player card.

An archery practice device projects a moving hunt scene on a screen. In one embodiment of the invention, a continuous plane of IR light is located prior to the screen, an arrow carrying a reflector is detected as it penetrates this light plane, and IR illumination is reflected back toward the archer and a full-screen radiation detector. In another embodiment, a piezoelectric motion detector senses impact of an arrow on the screen, an IR source is momentarily triggered by the motion detector, and IR illumination is reflected by the arrow toward the full-screen radiation detector. The detector generates a full-screen signal indicating the point of arrow impact on the screen. Upon detecting the arrow, the moving scene is frozen on the screen. The visual content of the frozen scene is coordinated to the full-screen signal from the detector, whereupon a hit zone image is projected on the screen to indicate the arrow impact point relative to the frozen scene. The arrow does not penetrate the screen, and drops vertically downward adjacent to the bottom of the screen at a location between the front of the screen and the archer.
摘要:
A card shooter apparatus of a table game system is provided with a card shooter unit having a card housing unit that stores a plurality of cards in a horizontally stacking manner, and a control device configured with a program storage unit, a computer device, etc. is arranged at a lower part of the card shooter apparatus. A lid is provided at an upper part of the card housing unit, and an optical sensor that receives reflected light of light irradiated to end surfaces of the plurality of cards stored in the card housing unit is arranged under the lid. The card shooter apparatus and the table game system make it possible to inspect that the plurality of cards complete a predetermined number (for example, 416 cards in the case of eight decks) in a state of being present in the card shooter apparatus.
摘要:
Disclosed is a code detecting system and method associated with moving objects. A light source provides light and sensor detects light as it reflects from a code supported by a moving object. Light from the light source reflects from a first portion of the code as the object moves, and is detected by the light sensor. Light from the light source reflects from at least a second portion of the code as the object moves, and is detected by the light sensor. A processor determines information representing the moving object, a first time when the at least one sensor detects the light reflecting from the first portion of the machine readable code and a second time when the at least one sensor detects the light reflecting from the second portion of the machine readable code. The speed of the moving object is determined thereby and displayed.
