4. Project Overview The ECE Grande is a digital poker game table. All personal player information is digitally stored The table will consist of 4 player stations Central community screen to display community information Web server to display the current game status on a remote computer

5. Project-Specific Success Criteria I. An ability to authenticate users using an RFID tag II. An ability to transmit/export the current game state via a TCP/IP connection III. An ability to display each player’s information on individual LCD screen and community information on a central screen.

6. PSSC – cont. IV. An ability to run a multi-player No-Limit Texas Hold’em game. V. An ability to interface with a distributed network of microcontrollers to control graphic LCDs and receive user input.
