Exhibition G2E LAS VEGAS 2013
enabling casinos to manage and audit their progressives from one central location. Secure, robust, and easy to use – BEPS is perfect for replacing or consolidating existing progressive system and controller offerings into one powerful system.
Bally’s Systems Elite Bonusing Suite, including Virtual Racing, Virtual Racing NASCAR, and DM Tournaments, featured prominently in Vegas and have already powered five world record- setting events. At this year’s show, Bally unveiled a new addition to its EBS portfolio − Bonus Tournaments. This DM Tournaments feature enables casinos to run floor-wide tournaments in which both the base game and the tournament game can be played at the same time, ensuring that there is no interruption in player-wagering activity.
SUPER SLOTLINE Before Super Slotline, casinos with serial floors
were unable to use advanced technology such as iVIEW Display Manager (DM) and EBS to run powerful, floor-wide promotions and events that drive increased coin-in, new player’s club registrations, tremendous player excitement, and even power world records. At G2E, casino operators with legacy networks were given first-hand experience as to how they can easily convert to high-speed Ethernet networked floors that enable the use of the latest in powerful floor-wide technologies.
SERVICE TRACKING MANAGER Service Tracking Manager (STM), is an
automated dispatch system that interfaces with handheld smart devices such as the iPhone and iPad for faster routing of casino floor personnel to patrons. At G2E, new STM features included Jackpot Processing, which enables casino staff to verify and redeem jackpots at the machine. Also new − the Patron Registration feature allows casino staff to register new players on the floor by scanning their ID and giving them a players- club card instantly.
BALLY INTERACTIVE Bally’s i-Gaming and mobile solutions are
designed to give casinos a single view of the player across online, mobile, and traditional brick-and-mortar gaming platforms and provide complete cross-platform gaming experience for both free play and wagering.
At G2E 2013, Bally showcased its full suite of interactive solutions including the integration of traditional land-based and iGaming systems for enhanced cross-platform bonusing, player tracking, and business intelligence; the Bally iGaming Platform for Internet and mobile casinos; and the Bally Mobile Platform for concierge casino apps and mobile websites.
DYNAMIC GAMING PART OF DNA
Validation, ticketing, promotions and now JCM Global’s iVIZION DNA is controlling revolutionary new displays
It sometimes takes a trade show to bring into clear perspective just how much the gaming industry is changing. It was possible at G2E 2013 to spend two or three hours on a company's booth and still feel that you'd not scratched the surface. And where you entered a booth with a pre-conceived idea about the products you were about to see, too many times at this show that notion was turned upside down.
It was also starkly apparent how much technology has changed not only the way we communicate, but the means through which we communicate. If you want to entertain a group of teenagers, simply take the time to explain the pigeon-hole system. How you'd take a written note and place it in a wooden box with your name on it, then wait several days, checking the box to see if anyone had replied. It's guaranteed to have them in stitches.
Attempting to pigeon-hole companies at the G2E show also proved equally redundant. Visiting JCM Global, you instantly think "bill validator company," but speaking to Tom Nieman, VP of Global Marketing, iVIZION is part of the DNA (Dynamic Network Applications) hub that controls not only bill validation, but ticketing, promotions and, new to the exhibition in Vegas, display communications too.
"We recognise that gaming in Las Vegas is a bigger than life experience and that digital media, especially in regards to the larger displays, the media walls, is a contributor to that experience," stated Mr. Nieman. "At this show we have introduced the third
component, interconnected and controlled through DNA, in addition to validation and ticketing, which offers the ability to publish information quickly and easily to digital media. Everything is Internet-linked by a keypad that controls all the panels, making pre-programmed events intuitive and easy to trigger. Everything is controlled via DNA.”
JCM Global launched its iVIZION DNA system 12 months ago as a central concept to make life easier for the operator. However, since then the company has kept discovering new uses for the system, responding to requests both from operators and regulators that have recognised the possibilities the system possesses. "Regulators asked 'could it create reports?' We responded and delivered a reporting solution at the validator," said Mr. Nieman. "Operators see the roadmap that we've introduced with iVIZION DNA and have seized the opportunities it provides to help them deliver the best performance across their locations."
The new tile display media format from JCM Global was one of the stand-out products at the show. An interconnected series of small LED panels, fitting together like flexible Lego, the rubberised supple sections can be joined together to create enormous curved screen- walls, fully circular displays that emit high resolution, low heat moving images that can be used anywhere in the casino or in retail spaces. "We're very excited about this product and the interest that we've had during the G2E show," said Mr. Nieman. "Operators understand the value that DNA can bring to their location through the interconnectivity it provides not only to bill validation, but ticketing and promotions and now display media. It's yet another reason why the iVIZION has earned shelf-space among the major operators around the globe."
