In all, it takes about 13 seconds for an individual die to make a round trip. There are 200 dice in the machine, each rolling four times a minute, totaling over 1,330,000 rolls a day.The dice are "Michigan Red Eyes", which have different colored pips for each value. The different colors make it pretty easy to count rolls. For example, if 6 yellow dots are found in the image, there were three 2s rolled, no need to worry about determining the proper grouping or orientation of pips.
As you know, computers can't actually generate random numbers. So what do you do if you need hundreds of random numbers per second?QuoteIn all, it takes about 13 seconds for an individual die to make a round trip.

Of course, I would have done the ADC + static noise method, but still this is pretty neat . . .http://gamesbyemail.com/News/DiceOMaticDice-O-Matic
