Aren;t there RFID chips yet? (this what I've been wondering for a long time on a side note: why don't casinos implement RFID chips... there are a lot advantages?? What am I missing...)
Yes, there
are RFID chips, and they're pretty much used in situations where you set one or two flag-size chips on a spot in BlackJack, and the sensor apparatus isn't such currently that you can put 43 assorted chips in the middle of the pot and have it just count them all.
To your first question, as I understand it, and as I've had it explained, and per the manual (I mean, I don't have one delivered yet - it's shipping from Australia once my card goes through) -- yes -- you either need:
- A "producer." A guy has a tablet PC and he keys in bets and other actions that the mere passing of cards over the RFID spots can't catch.
- Time in post-production. All the info is captured, as is multiple cameras. You just review the hands afterward. Since it's supposed to take a minute or so per hand, it likes takes a long in post-production as it does to PLAY the game.
I'm
quite computer savvy, so I'm not worried about either having a producer -- or being the producer -- or doing it in post-production.
...and, of course, the CARDS and sound and pictures are recorded regardless, so it's pretty obvious if someone near a microphone repeats the bet amounts.
