iDeal Robotic Poker Dealer Isn’t Exactly

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Thursday, 8 of May , 2008 at 3:27 am

It may not be the most talented poker dealer in the world, but hey, it’s a robot, and it was built as a school project by some anonymous YouTuber:

Introducing the “iDeal”. It’s the worlds best automatic poker dealer! Perfect for your home poker games and fits on the edge of a table. Features include:
- PIC microprocessor coded in C
- preprogrammable games such as texas holdem (shown in video), bridge, gin, omaha, etc
- IR player position sensing using bicycle reflectors as indicators
- ultrasonic player distance sensing which determines how far to shoot the cards

Doesn’t look like much of a flop there, but I’m still reasonably impressed.
