Autonomous Card Dealing Poker Robot
THE GOAL
Create a robot that can deal cards to up to 8 players in a game of poker and deal the 5 'river' cards, both face-up and face-down.
The robot uses C++ pointers and arrays to keep track of each player's balance and decisions so that no chips are required.
This robot successfully makes facilitating a game of poker much easier and efficient.

Who am I?
I am a 4th year undergraduate student at the University of Waterloo pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
I chose this profession to pursue my passion of applying science and math to solve real-life problems. From robotics to nuclear welding and automation, I have a wide variety of experiences through my internships and personal projects
Outside of engineering, I love camping, sports, and cooking—more about my outside-engineering life below.
