First Multi-Player Roulette of Austrian Gaming Industries
in South Africa
R.S.A.
Over the past 12 months alone, Austrian
Gaming Industries (AGI) has sold more than 100 Multi Player Roulette
Systems including over 1000 terminals supplying almost every Casino in
Europe with its current product line.
With 1500 slot machines and 50 live game tables, Caesars Gauteng Casino Resort is one of the largest casinos in South Africa and following the installation of a Multi-Player- Roulette the casino now has a new attraction. The Multi-Player Roulette System consists of 8 terminals, where each player can place their bets on a touch-screen monitor. The terminals are grouped around a fully automated roulette wheel, which changes its direction of spin in every game. Compressed air is used to launch and spin the ball with varying speed in the wheel, thus providing for an authentic live game experience linked with advanced slot gaming technology. In order to offset the downward trend of live games in casinos, NOVOMATIC Group, one of the leading integrated gaming groups in the world, challenged its Research, Production and Sales subsidiary AGI in the mid-90ies to find a solution that would combine the fascination of live games with state-of-the-art slot technology, remembers AGI's managing director Jens Halle. Since that time, AGI invests almost 10 percent of its annual sales revenues in research and development and employs a staff of 80 highly qualified computer and networking experts in its R&D department. Mega-sellers such as Multi-Player Roulette, Touchbet™
Roulette and the most recent product, Flying Roulette are the result of
the high quality of the development work. "The development of Touchbet™
Roulette alone required an investment of some 25 million EURO”, added Mr.
Halle in conclusion.
