Casinos and Radio Frequency Identification
Casinos set to go high-tech frequency identification Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has been part of our everyday lives for well over a decade, including the ID microchip tags that veterinarians surgically implant in pets. But only recently has it been rendered practical and affordable enough for implanting in gaming chips.
The deployment of technology that will revolutionize the way casinos rate individual play at table games is coming in the not-so-distant future. RFID makes use of wireless technology. Information is recorded when the tag is within the range of a transmitted radio signal.
When someone buys into a game and turns in a player's club card, he or she will be identified by table position. Every single bet the player makes during that session will be recorded by sensors at the table and stored in a data base.
The chips don't look any different from a standard chip, but inside each of them is an embedded microchip. When the chip is placed in the betting circle, a detector plate emits an electromagnetic field that recognizes it and sends the information to the table's computer.
Slot players for many years have enjoyed the luxury of having their play tracked accurately and instantly. In return, the casino rewards them with perks, coupons and cash back based upon number of visits and level of play. full article ~ by Brokopp is a lifelong student of gambling and horse racing
