“It’s always tricky to predict how long field trials are going to take,” Mr. Washington added. “We’re working very closely with Station Casinos to ensure that our games are set up with all the right details, so we hope to see a successful completion within the normal time period.
“We have another Nevada field trial announcement coming up soon for our initial set of games, including popular titles like Safari Match, Mahjong, and Candy Ca$h. We are also working to prepare follow up titles for trials, once we are successful with this initial set. Skill-

We’re certainly looking at expansion in the US and, with our recent approval from the Nevada Gaming Commission, are currently working to grow our local footprint.

Te booth was split into different categories. Te first category illustrated three slots running under Ganlot’s most popular market-ready all-in-one solutions. Tese customer slots are widely deployed with exceptional reliability and player adoption feedback, according to the company. Within the slot gaming area, Ganlot featured internal hardware technology including logic units, PTS, and button decks. Logic unit options include the GFS-1900 system that can be paired with mini- ITX boards to accommodate multiple platforms. When equipped with Ganlot gaming cards and SAS modules, this provides a flexible all-in-one solution to meet casino-level requirements.
Ganlot was also launching a powerful logic unit PGS-6310 solutions based on the AMD Ryzen embedded V1000 processor which supports up to 4K@60Hz for four independent displays. For PTS, the company provides two configurations, 4.3” & 6.2” all-in-one solutions based on new platform and 5.7” HDMI display with x86 based small PC. Because touch button decks are becoming increasingly popular in slot machines, Ganlot has introduced a new 10.1” monitor for this equipment. Finally, in the GMO solutions area, Ganlot was launching a new gaming mixer for game content and PTS, called the GMO-1960.
