A scale apparatus is described. The scale apparatus may include a housing sized to fit within a playing card tuck box; a pressure plate operable to measure a weight of a plurality of objects; a wireless transmitter; and a microcontroller in communication with the pressure plate and the wireless transmitter. The microcontroller may be configured to: continuously measure the weight on the pressure plate; when the weight holds steady for a sequence of measurements, transmit a first weight measurement via the wireless transmitter; measure a change in the weight; and when the change in the weight is steady, transmit a second weight measurement via the wireless transmitter.

A card gaming system is provided, comprising: a table, at least one camera, and a processing device. The table has at least one betting area. The camera captures an image of the betting area. The processing device analyzes the image to identify each pile of chips based on diameters of the chips, to identify each chip from the identified piles of chips based on heights of the chips, to identify a chip value of each of the identified chips based on color, and to calculate a total value of bets based on a sum of the chip values.

The present disclosure relates to the field of electronic card books, and more particularly, to a method for generating and using an electronic card book, the method may include: at a first step, purchasing a physical card book, at a second step, downloading APP, at a third step, verifying the physical card book, at a fourth step, generating an electronic card book, at a fifth step, generating an electronic card, at a sixth step, searching for electronic cards, and generating the electronic card book by downloading the APP, wherein the electronic card book corresponds to the physical card book, and the same electronic card book as the physical card book can be generated directly by scanning the QR code, the appearance and card format of the electronic card book are consistent with the physical card book.

A packing box for packaging of playing cards has, in an assembled state, a shape of a rectangular parallelepiped with six faces including front and rear faces, right and left side faces, and top and bottom faces. The packing box includes cut lines in two locations at a predetermined interval in parallel with a longitudinal direction of the rectangular parallelepiped, and a central band in a portion defined by the cut lines provided in the two locations. The right and left side faces of the packing box can be removed along the cut lines such that side edges of the playing cards within the packing box are exposed.

To better protect collectible cards, a better tamper evident case is needed, one that counterfeiters cannot replicate. Disclosed is a collectible card case where each edge is physical unclonable function (“PUF”) material that counterfeiters cannot replicate. Further disclosed is a thermally sealed bag with an integrated PUF material where each bag is unique and unclonable, and a device for sealing and measuring the magnetic and optical properties of the PUF material. Finally, a reusable hard case is disclosed with features that allow for a one-time use PUF security clip.

A system includes a smart table at which a wagering game is provided RFID-enabled chips and RFID sensors configured to detect the presence of RFID-enabled chips. The smart table includes a dealer scratchpad for detecting a value of RFID-enabled chips within a scratchpad area on the smart table. The smart table includes a ticket reader and a processor configured to scan, with the ticket reader, a voucher presented by a player, the voucher is redeemable for a voucher value, determine the voucher value of the voucher in response to the scanning, display, to a dealer of the wagering game at the smart table, a confirmation that the player is entitled to receive the voucher value, detect, from the RFID sensor, a chip value within the scratchpad area, compare the chip value to the voucher value, and display, to the dealer, a confirmation that the chip value matches the voucher value.
