Abstract :
All of the image recognition, the RFID recognition, the robotic control, the robotic kinematics, the robotic motion trajectory generation methods, and a robot are integrated into the Intelligent Interaction Dealer Robot. This dealer robot can imitate professional actions of a real card dealer to deal out poker cards in the front of players, recognize points of every card by image recognition system, count bets by RFID recognition system, pay or take chips by judging players´ and the dealer´s points, and collect all cards when this gambling have been finished. By using these recognition systems and the robotic action databases, the dealer robot can play a professional card dealer by itself to serve players in casino. The characteristics of the dealer robot include: 1. The dealer robot with two mimetic arms is designed and manufactured by ourselves. 2. Two mimetic machine arms are specially designed as one adsorption right arm and one sweeping left arm. 3. The robotic kinematics and fuzzy approximation are used to generate the robotic motion trajectories to establish the robotic action databases. 4. The image and RFID recognition methods are used to recognize points of cards and count bets of chips. In a word, the dealer service robot is developed to serve players in a casino. By using this dealer robot, the human resource cost can be reduced and the competitiveness of the tourism and gambling industry can be enhanced.
