Live casino games are one of the most popular ways to play casino games online. The demand is huge – and even when the first idea for live dealer casino was put into play, the concept alone was deemed revolutionary. In the early 2000s, technology wasn’t yet advanced enough to withstand the idea, and despite game developer’s greatest efforts, gameplay was far from the smooth, immersive casino experience they had imagined. 

It wasn’t until the mid-2000s, when smartphones revolutionised the market, that new interfaces were developed that would create the basis for live casino gaming to be taken to the next level. 

Now, as technology continues to advance so quickly it can be hard to comprehend, there’s no doubt an incredible amount of work that goes into creating the incredible live casino experience. But, what exactly does it entail? 

Read on to find out more. 

The studio

Most online casinos will have more than three rooms, each making a vital contribution to the game. These include: the live studio, a software room, and an analyst room. The real, human dealer will be in the live studio, with a monitor, microphones and cameras. The software room makes sure everything is running smoothly, and the analyst room keeps track of players, their bets, and makes sure no one is cheating. 

Cameras

The cameras used for live casino games are usually state-of-the-art streaming cameras that are carefully positioned so you can focus on the dealer without any distractions, making the most of the smooth transitions to fully immerse you into gameplay. Alongside the launch of Crazy Time by Evolution Gaming, most sites will have a section like Paddy Power’s live dealer casino area where frequently asked questions, by players, about the incredible technology that was involved in gameplay can be found. 

Cameras would transition to different parts of the room, bonus games would make wheels spin and, in general, the game was much more complex than anything anyone had ever seen before.

Computers 

Of course, computers are also a vital part in processing the gameplay and streaming it to your device. There will be a monitor in front of the dealer, so that they can communicate with players, and direct them through the game. There’ll also be computers with all the software needed to ensure fair, smooth and animated gameplay, as well as to manage bets and payouts. 

Software

An extremely important part of live dealer casino gameplay is the Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which is a software that scans everything the camera sees, then cross-references it with its available data. This means that everything the camera sees, and all the information that’s crucial to gameplay, is available on your screen without delay! This software is also important to the Game Control Unit, which is attached to every table. The Game Control Unit encodes the video stream and processes OCR software information. Without this, the live casino wouldn’t run.

Micro-chipped cards and digitized wheels

Most of the decks of cards used in live dealer casino games will be microchipped. This means that as the dealer shuffles, deals and reacts to a players request with the cards, the results get processed immediately and streamed to your device in real-time. A lot of the time wheels, such as Roulette wheels, in live casinos will be digitized, so results can be streamed to you with no delay. It’s common for real wheels to be used, but the use of a Random Number Generator (RNG) is often relied on to keep gameplay smoother, more efficient, and more immersive, by providing quicker results.
