Abstract
The virtual chess table includes a table that includes a touch screen and joystick on opposing sides of the table. The touch screen and joystick are each used by competing players in order to play a game chess. The table includes a pane of glass that encloses an image projector there under. The image projector is used to generate a chessboard on the pane of glass. A hologram projector system is included and is suspended above the table. The hologram projector system is used to create a three-dimension hologram of the chess pieces used to play the game of chess. The hologram projector system and the image projector are in wired connection with a computer located underneath the table. The computer is also in wire connection with the touch screen and joystick provided at opposing sides of the table.
