A gaming machine includes at least one image sensor for capturing an image including a player area associated with the gaming machine and logic circuitry in communication with the image sensor. The logic circuitry establishes a facial image mask defining an area of interest within the player area, receives the captured image from the image sensor, applies the facial image mask to the captured image to extract player image data from the captured image data, detects any faces within the player image data, compares, in response to detecting a face of a player within the player image data, the detected face with a player database to identify a player account associated with the player, and links, in response to identifying a matching player account based on the comparison, the matching player account to activities of the player at the gaming machine.

Gaming systems and methods for adaptable player area monitoring

Methods and systems of monitoring at least one feature associated with a patron in a gaming establishment. Such methods and systems may include detecting at least one physical feature associated with the patron and/or motions of one or more players participating in a game.

Systems and devices for identification of a feature associated with a user in a gaming establishment and related methods

At least one example of the present disclosure includes a system having a gaming table, a sensor embedded into the gaming table, and a user interface device. The sensor is configured to sense an action that occurs at a player station of the gaming table. The user interface device is associated with the player station (e.g., at the player station, in communicative connection with a device at the player station, etc.). The user interface device is configured to one or more of present, via a video display in response to the sensed action, a bonus feature, or access, via a casino network in response to the sensed action, a player electronic fund account. Access to the player electronic fund account can include use of electronic funds from the player electronic fund account for one or more games available at the gaming table.

System and method for hosting and managing a live game

Gaming machine

Gaming machine with graphical user interface

A system and method for hosting and managing a live game are disclosed which includes a live gaming table for live players and a live dealer. In an embodiment an application configures a player's mobile device to receive an invitation from a casino to play the table game based upon the player being, based upon location aware technology, being in or near the casino. Accepting the invention permits the player to reserve a position at the gaming table and displays a machine readable code at the player's mobile device. The player positions at the gaming table include video display and player input devices (VDPIDs) and a code reader to read the displayed code and access the player's electronic account. Using the VDPID the player may convert between electronic funds and physical gaming chips, participate in video bonus event play and back-bet on other players.
