Abstract: Systems and methods for projecting game boards are provided. In one embodiment an image source transmits a gaming surface image; a display surface having an upper surface face and a lower surface face, is configured to receive the gaming surface image against the lower surface face and display the gaming surface image through the upper surface face. An interaction interface arranged over the display surface is configured to register interaction input actions; and an interaction detector is configured and arranged to detect the interaction input actions registered by the interaction surface and communicate the interaction input actions to a computer. A computer configured to send gaming surface information to the image source and receive the interaction input actions from the interaction detector is also included. The system also includes a frame supporting the display surface and the interaction surface including a recess containing the display surface and the interaction surface.
