platforms, to ensure better screen durability and performance. Designed with Elo's innovative 2- glass (2GS) PCAP solution, the 90-Series brings a new level of rugged, more sensitive, multi- touch monitors for enhanced player experiences, while casino operators can boost revenue-per-visitor numbers by attracting players with new design possibilities.
For those not ready to move to its state-of-the- art PCAP technology, Elo still offers designers IntelliTouch Zero-Bezel (iTouch), its innovative true flat glass-to-edge surface acoustic wave (SAW) solution, IntelliTouch (SAW), and AccuTouch resistive options. Existing customers looking to reduce costs can rely on the 90- Series to deliver a full product line of refreshed units, all designed to be mechanically standardised and backwards compatible to allow for drop in replacements of existing models. Te common design, electronics and port layout of the touchmonitors allow for easy transition between sizes. All models are made from professional, commercial-grade components specifically designed to extend product life and suit any upright, tabletop or bartop application.

ELO’s 90-Series Open Frame is set to Revolutionise Slot Development
Touchscreen pioneer ELO promises a revolution in the gaming industry with the launch of its next-generation 90-Series Open Frame Touch monitors and displays
Mike Sigona, Regional Manager at ELO, said: “We firmly believe that what we’re launching at this show will revolutionise the gaming industry more than any other product seen at this show. We’ve listened to the gaming industry, who has said that whilst our touch screens are the best, they are also the most expensive. We’ve invested more money in this project than any before it and as a result we’re refreshing our entire line for the first time in our history. We’re launching 12 models, featuring true-flat glass- to-edge surfaces and bezeled options, in 10 sizes, from 10” to 27” giving 40 variations. Te
GSA lights the path forward for industry
Te Gaming Standards Association was showing the path forward for technology and standards at this year’s ICE.
GSA President Peter DeRaedt said: “Tis is a turning point in the gaming industry’s history. We have a choice: utilise technology to advance the industry or let it overwhelm us. At GSA, we are encouraged about gaming’s future, and stand ready to help the industry find the path forward.
“As an organisation, we want to further understand the European gaming industry’s desire and support for holding regional meetings, thereby allowing these European
fact that we’re not just doing this for one style of unit, but every style of unit, means that this is also a major cost reduction exercise. We’re looking to pass on that saving and address the second part of the industry feedback relating to cost. Now we’re the world’s best with cost savings that are extremely competitive. Tese monitors will revolutionise how slot machines are built.”
Te new monitors also address demands from gaming customers looking for affordable projected capacitive touch technology (PCAP)
At the heart of the technology is 2GS PCAP which comprises two layers of glass without any plastic film for optimal image quality and long- term stability. As film PCAP comes with an increased risk of delamination and loss of sensitivity due to the expansion and contraction of plastic, and can yellow when exposed over time to the heat and humidity found in many gaming jurisdictions. However, by using two layers of glass, Elo's 90-Series will provide a more suitable and resistant option for varied uses and environments.
Jason Krause, Senior Product Manager at ELO said: "With our touchscreen design and manufacturing expertise, we've been able to bring the broadest offerings of touchmonitors to gaming and kiosk applications and using the highest quality PCAP technology at an affordable price-point the industry will appreciate. We're seeing increased demand for this technology, especially in gaming and kiosk applications where the lure of attracting younger, more tech savvy users has kept it on the wish list of many. We're providing customers with platforms to offer better interactive experiences and enhance engagement."

companies to more actively participate in the identification, definition and development of gaming standards that serve our industry.”
Until now, the gaming industry has relied on the same touchscreen technology for 30 years -- Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) and traditional Surface Capacitive. Scaling PCAP to mainstream machines with screen sizes of 22 to 27-inches has traditionally priced out most slot developers. But as the industry evolves, Elo's 90-Series monitorswill put the sought-after, high-grade 2GS PCAPwithin reach at a more affordable price. By upgrading, cabinetmakers can benefit frommodern true flat design possibilities and game designers can implement touch gestures and up to 10 simultaneous touches expected by younger players, both enhancing players' gaming experiences, without increasing costs.
Te Elo Touch Solution’s 90-Series touchmonitors will be available from May 2016, with drawings, samples and pricing available much sooner.
