<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game machine including a token identification device preventing false recognition that a token is input by an illegal act to camouflage the input of the token. <P>SOLUTION: The game machine 100 includes: a game machine body 101; the token identification device (1, 106) stored inside the game machine body 101; and a main control circuit 110 stored inside the game machine body 101. In the game machine 100, the token identification device (1, 106) includes: a casing 2 forming a passage 6 through which a token flows down; an imaging portion 4 disposed so as to set a part of the passage 6 as a photographic range, and generating an image of the photographic range; and a control circuit 51 extracting a region wherein an article inserted into the passage is captured from the image, deciding that a token is input when the outer shape of the region accords with the outer shape of the token, and outputting the decision result thereof to the main control circuit 110. When the main control circuit 110 receives the decision result representing that the token is input, the main control circuit permits the start of a game. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT</p> |
