Aristocrat’s VIRIDIAN cabinet gets key lab approvals
May 15, 2008
Aristocrat Technologies announced that its VIRIDIAN cabinet
has received multiple test lab certifications in key North American markets.
The product is now certified in most GLI jurisdictions, New Jersey, and three Canadian provinces.
Aristocrat also completed its Colorado
field trial of the VIRIDIAN cabinet ahead of schedule, and is in the final
stages of field trial in Nevada.
VIRIDIAN was initially placed in select approved markets in late March and the
company said it has received an extremely positive response from players and
operators alike.
“Our reports show that customer acceptance is very high, and
early numbers indicate improved casino performance with more than a 50 percent
increase in multiple locations,” said Sean Evans, senior vice president of sales.
“We believe that can be directly attributed to VIRIDIAN’s unique features
including its dynamic scorecard, easy-play interface, and high impact cabinet
presence.”
The VIRIDIAN cabinet is designed for optimal player comfort
and operator serviceability and features a slimmer footprint, high resolution
dual LCDs and unique, wrap-around belly art, creating a truly unique product
offering. VIRIDIAN embraces environmentally responsible design and production
methods, resulting in a 100 percent RoHS-compliant product and increased energy
efficiency for operators.
Driven by an Intel™ processor, the innovative GEN7 platform
features dynamic scorecards and an enhanced Easy Play on-screen interface,
including player-selectable denominations. The new platform utilizes Smart card
and flash card technology, and, in addition to
offering an enhanced player experience, GEN7 paves the way for downloadable,
server-based and wireless gaming, supporting the technology of today while
driving the technology of the future.
