5 Amazing Technologies Emerging in The Online Gambling Industry

The first online casinos appeared over twenty years ago but like every other tech-savvy industry, online gambling is changing constantly. New casino technologies and trends emerge all the time and what was impossible a few years ago, is now a reality. Game providers want to make the games more and more exciting and immersive and online casinos want to make the gambling experience safe, convenient and fun.

In this article, we are going to talk about five new technologies in casino business that are transforming our gameplay. Péter Deli, Hungarian iGaming expert helped us compile the list. Read more about Péter here.

1.  Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality

Virtual reality transports you to an imaginary world that seems so real. This technology that is now used in gambling tech, has been used for years in video gaming, education and even in military training. The beauty of VR is that everything is in 3D and you feel like you are part of the story. In a virtual reality casino, you can walk through the casino doors to find yourself in the main lobby where you can head to the bar or straight to a roulette table, poker table or your favourite slot machine. The only downside of VR casinos is that you must own the headset, which doesn’t come cheap at the moment.

Augmented reality applies a virtual object (or objects) to real environments. This technology requires special eyewear and by turning your head you can see the casino environment that is provided by a 360-degree camera panning the entire casino.

2.  Live-Dealer Games

Players can enjoy live-dealer games without any special equipment. In fact, you might access live-dealer games from your smartphone. For example, Unibet casino, which accepts players from Hungary, has many roulette, blackjack, baccarat and poker games hosted by live dealers. In these games, you will have a live video connection with the casino room and through text, you can interact with the dealer and the other players as well. This experience is almost like being in a brick-and-mortar casino. You can enjoy the glamour of the games and yet you don’t have to dress up and make your way to the casino.

3.  Cryptocurrency Payments

Not so long ago we had to wonder if it is safe to enter our credit/debit card details online when paying for something. Nowadays, there are so many additional security layers that depositing money into your casino account shouldn’t concern you. However, blockchain technology provides the ultimate payment security at present. Apart from these transactions being free and instant, they are the safest payment methods out there. The transactions use advanced encryption and it is almost impossible to hack into the system. It is really easy to set up a Bitcoin account and for many casinos, this is now the preferred payment method.

4.  Mobile Technology

We are now using our smartphone for everything from banking to taking high-quality photos. Gaming and gambling have also found their way to smartphone screens. Internet speeds are getting higher and higher everywhere and coverage in Hungary and in Europe, in general, is excellent. This means that you can enjoy your favourite game when you are sitting on the bus or on your lunch break at the office. Almost all casinos mobile-optimize their games or provide their own apps or both. Smartphones nowadays have an excellent resolution so players don’t lose much in quality when compared to PC gaming.

5.  Artificial Intelligence Technology

AI technology is widely used today and the online gambling industry is a keen user of AI as well. Almost all casinos use chatbots that can solve complex issues – so no more waiting in line for a standard question that a bot could answer in less than a second.

AI is also used to record and analyze player behaviour. When the system notices what games you like it will bring up those ones on top in your search results. It also stores data about the choices you made during the game to make future offers tailor-made to your needs.

Conclusion

Casinos are using the best available technology to enhance player experience, offering VR, AR and live dealer games to their players. The safety of the players is also on their mind and by allowing cryptocurrency payments they provide safe transactions. Mobile technology and AI make gaming more convenient and streamlined to each individual’s needs.
