Gaming environment tracking system calibration

An apparatus to automatically calibrate a gaming table, the apparatus comprising:

• a projector configured to project at least one marker onto a surface of the gaming table;
• a camera configured to capture at least one image of the at least one marker and at least one physical gaming-table object planar with a surface of the gaming table;
• and
• a processor configured to perform operations that cause the apparatus to
• identify, in response to electronic analysis of the at least one image by a neural network model, the at least one marker and the at least one physical gaming-table object, wherein the at least one marker has a shape transformable, via a known isomorphic relationship, from a camera perspective to a perspective of a virtual scene;
• determine, via one or more transformations of one or more portions of the image to the perspective of the virtual scene based on the known isomorphic relationship, a difference between a position and orientation of the at least one marker and a position and orientation of the at least one physical gaming-table object;
• and
• set, in response to determination of the difference, a position and orientation of gaming content within the virtual scene in relation to the position and orientation of the at least one physical gaming-table object.
