outrunner Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) I have built a "Card Dealer" using raspberry pi with camera, some sensors, and 2 PF-Motors. It can sequential or random deal, recognize card, and play "13支"(Chinese Poker). Deal 52 cards into 4 separate piles in 4.6 seconds. (Turbo mode) And a "Lite" version. Lite(left) vs Normal(right) some pictures Edited March 10, 2016 by outrunner Quote
2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I am impressed, real great build!!! Especially the card recognition amazes me the most...well done...!!! :thumbup: Quote
WhiteFang Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I am damn impressed with the distribution of poker cards. Will be damn useful to deploy it during Chinese New Year celebrations. Real nice video demos as well. Thank you for sharing. Quote
Jim Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Hi, Welcome to EB! This is a very nice creation to introduce yourself with. Well done I am very interested to know how you prevent the machine from dealing double cards? Is there any special mechanism, or you simply use new cards and the weight of the pile prevents double cards from being dealt? Quote
outrunner Posted March 10, 2016 Author Posted March 10, 2016 Thank you for liking it. There are LEGO tires blocking at the other side, and use a rubber band(I will use spring instead next time) for pull up the card box. This is a robust mechanism so it can work very well even at high speed. The Lite version only use the weight of cards with a tire for the last few cards(too light). There is a mechanism for blocking also. Quote
Sylvian Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I like the rainbow colored wires,..but seriously thats impressive! Quote
zux Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 That card dealing in 4.7 seconds looks amazing. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Amazing machine! The second video is really impressive! Quote
