• Abstract: This research project investigates the application of several computer vision techniques for playing card detection and recognition in the context of the popular casino game, blackjack. The primary objective is to develop a robust system that is capable of detecting and accurately classifying playing cards in real-time, and displaying the optimal move recommendation based on the given image of the current game. The proposed methodology involves using K-Means for image segmentation, card reprojection and feature extraction, training of the KNN classifier using a labeled dataset, and integration of the detection system into a Blackjack Basic Strategy recommendation algorithm. Further, the study aims to observe the effectiveness of this approach in detecting various card designs under different lighting conditions and occlusions. Overall, the project examines the potential benefits of incorporating computer vision techniques, with a specific focus on card detection, into commonly played games aiming to enhance player decision-making and optimize strategic outcomes. The results obtained from our experimental evaluations with models developed under considerable time constraints, highlight the potential for practical implementation in real-world casino environments and across other similarly structured games.
