Systems and methods of tracking playing chips on a gaming table. The system may include a game playing surface, a chip tray including a plurality of chip storage formations for receiving playing chips, a light emitting device to illuminate the playing chips, and a diffuser associated with the light emitting device to modify the light emitted by the light emitting device into a second light distribution pattern. Images of the illuminated playing chips are processed to identify the one or more playing chips and the one or more playing chip amounts associated with the one or more playing chips. The playing chip amounts are transmitted to a gaming monitoring server.

Embodiments described herein relate to systems and methods for monitoring progressive game activities at a plurality of gaming tables. For example, embodiments described herein relate to systems and methods for monitoring that a bet for playing a progressive game was made, the amount of the bet, the position of the bet, the identification of the player who made the bet and the identification of the gaming table at which the bet was made. A progressive jackpot metric may be computed based on the data captured at the gaming table for increasing or decreasing one or more progressive jackpots. Visual elements corresponding to the one or more progressive jackpots may be rendered on a jackpot interface display.

SYSTEMS, METHODS AND DEVICES FOR MONITORING BETTING ACTIVITIES
System, processes and devices for monitoring betting activities using bet recognition devices and a server. Each bet recognition device has an imaging component for capturing image data for a gaming table surface. The bet recognition device receives calibration data for calibrating the bet recognition device. A server processor coupled to a data store processes the image data received from the bet recognition devices over the network to detect, for each betting area, a number of chips and a final bet value for the chips.
Systems, methods, devices, and computer readable media for monitoring card game activities at gaming tables, such as for example, counting the number of card hands at gaming tables. The devices may include a sensor array network to detect game events; a microcontroller for running logic level code for checking sensors of the sensors of the sensor array network for pre-defined thresholds defining the detected game events and in response generating game event data; and a connection cable for coupling to a server device for transmitting the game event data. Systems may connect client hardware devices with sensors for monitoring card game activities. A game monitoring server may collect, process and aggregate hand event data received from the client hardware devices to generate hand count data for gaming tables. A front end interface device may receive notifications relating to hand count data for provision to end user systems.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF DETECTING BODY MOVEMENTS USING GLOBALLY GENERATED MULTI-DIMENSIONAL GESTURE DATA
The disclosure describes systems and methods of detecting body movements using gesture data. The gesture data may be self-referenced and may be comprised by frames which may identify locations or positions of body parts of a subject with respect to a particular reference point within the frame. A classifier may process frames to learn body movements and store the frames of gesture data in a database. Data comprising frames of self-referenced gesture data may be received by a recognizer which recognizes movements of the subject identified by the frames by matching gesture data of the incoming frames to the classified self-referenced gesture data stored in the database.
