These playing cards are completely covered with OID codes, which are invisible to the naked eye. But they can be identified by the Foxy-Reader at any point on the cards and the information can be given to the player discretely via earphones. The cards can also be easily identified from the back when they are lying face down on the table.
International reserves the right to make any changes or improvements to its products without further notice. Cleaning and care Clean the surfaces of the Foxy-Reader with a damp cloth. Do not use corrosive and abrasive cleaning products. Don’t scrub the surface with rough objects (not even sponges).
