Our demo went very well this week. All of the aspects of our player area are functional and ready to go: We have a full deck of RFID cards that can be detected correctly by our RFID reader, we have a prototype chip with embedded resistor and are able to detect the monetary value of a stack of chips, and we have our E-Ink display hooked up so that it displays the cards and chips of the player in real time.
We have also begun production on our shuffler/dealer, as stated in Chris’ weekly update. We will also begin on working on the central computing unit, so that we can link multiple play areas together now that we have one functioning set. We will continue to work out that before working on incorporating the play area into a more visually pleasing unit.
