I've build my RFID poker table for less than $300
I started my own side hustle building a smart poker table At this stage, I have a working prototype that can generate an overlay with player's and pot cards percentages, hand history, video editing, and more Here's a demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QU8MC7q8FQ
In plain words
This is a homemade RFID poker table built for under $300 that automatically tracks game data and generates real-time overlays. It displays player equity percentages, pot odds, hand history, and other analytics during play. The prototype is designed for poker enthusiasts and content creators who want to analyze games, create educational content, or produce streaming overlays with detailed game statistics and video editing capabilities.

Hey, my name is Ivo and I'm a startup enthusiast. I'm a huge poker fan and I've been watching poker streams for a while. I always wondered how they do it how they display those cards on the screen, do they have somebody watching the cameras and entering all this data manually, is there a fancy image recognition AI model in the background? It appeared to be much simpler with the help of RFID. Each card has an RFID chip with a unique ID, and each player has an RFID scanner below the table, once the scanner detects the cards voilà we know what card the player has. Once I found how it worked I…

I made a thing! In 2014, I was holding a stack of iPhones and thought to myself: "Hey, if I had each phone display a playing card, I could click a button and they'd shuffle themselves" I pared that idea all the way down to this: trading cards made of e-ink displays. Right now, each card costs me about $20 each, but with only a bit more scale, I think I can get that down to $10. In doing this project, I learned how to design electronics and circuit boards. I learned Rust and wrote my first driver, I upped my CAD skills, 3D printed, and did my first resin casting. I generated the images on the…

I wanted to see how difficult it would be to build a web app using a sub-$300 android smartphone. Decided to build a fun predictions website where you could bet virtual (not real) money on predictions made by others, and also make predictions of your own. Building it turned out to be considerably easier and more fun than I anticipated. Primary tools used were: # QuickEdit as the mobile code editor (Note: the free version of the QuickEdit app is riddled with ads, it shows an advert each time you close a tab, but it unfortunately had the best UI of the 3 or so Android code editors I tested.…
